i dont know all about it but he says that the mother and the father both pass genes to their offspring even though they may not show for example their fathers blue eyes but they show their mothers green eyes. the blue eyes is a recessive gene they will pass to their offspring. so it may skipa generation and come back because the offspring carry that gene. no gene is lost until it has passed 2 generations without a mother or father having it of the offspring have it.

Does your analysis support or refute mendels hypothesis of dominant and recessive inheritance?

You are from Kerr. The answer is on the textbook. The analysis does support the hypothesis because some of the offspring's genotype is heterozygous, as they have two different alleles. They do not have the recessive traits expressed, except in organisms that are homozygous recessive. You're so welcome.


What was the purpose of mendels?

To determine if one trait could affect the inheritance of another trait


What aspect of Mendels background gave him the necessary tools to discover the laws of inheritance?

He had studied mathematics and probability.


What experiment method did gregor Mendels use during his study of inheritance?

Gregor Mendel used controlled breeding experiments with pea plants to study inheritance. He crossed different varieties that displayed contrasting traits and carefully analyzed the patterns of inheritance in the offspring generations. Through these controlled experiments, he was able to establish the principles of heredity.


Why the blending hypothesis rejected as the method of inheritance?

The blending hypothesis was rejected as the method of inheritance because it could not explain the observed patterns of inheritance, especially the reappearance of traits in later generations that were not visible in the immediate offspring. Additionally, the blending hypothesis does not account for the variation observed in offspring that is more consistent with the principles of Mendelian genetics.


Did Mendel make a major contribution to the cell theory?

Yes. Gregor Mendels 3 Principals of Inheritance show the transmission of genetic traits.


What can be known about Mendels five-part hypothesis?

Mendel's five-part hypothesis, known as Mendel's laws of inheritance, includes the principles of segregation, independent assortment, dominance, recessiveness, and the law of uniformity. These laws explain how traits are passed on from parents to offspring, and laid the foundation for the study of genetics. Mendel's research with pea plants in the 19th century provided key insights into heredity and the transmission of genetic traits.


How did mendels views on inheritance differ from the views of many scientists of his time?

Mendel called the more common traits "dominant" and the less common ones "recessive."-Sami. (:


Why is human height an expection to mendels principles of heredity?

Human height is governed by polygenic inheritance, which means that more than one gene determines a person's height.


How do you describe a pattern of inheritance that the blending hypothesis fails to explain?

A pattern of inheritance that the blending hypothesis fails to explain is incomplete dominance, where the heterozygous phenotype is intermediate between the two homozygous phenotypes. This contradicts the blending hypothesis, which suggests that the traits of the parents are mixed together in the offspring. In incomplete dominance, the traits remain distinct in the offspring.


What was lamarck's incorrect hypothesis regarding inheritance?

Lamarck's incorrect hypothesis regarding inheritance.... Lamarck did not know how traits were inherited (Traits are passed through genes) Genes are not changed by activities in life. They change through mutation occurs before an organism is born.


Why were true-breeding pea Plant important for Mendels experiment?

True breeding plants were homozygous for all the characters expressed, hence inheritance of characters was better understood with the help of these plants.
