Evaluate the signific of mendels work to the field of genetics?

Answer 1

Mendel discovered his roles belong genetics in 1965. He crossed to different beans: red flowering and white flwering each other. So he saw all F1 hibridies were red flowering. Next year he drilled F1 plants and he again crossed them themselves. Flowers were isolated: 3-red, 1-white...

Answer 2

Prior to Mendel, scientists thought that the breeding of two living things, each of the same species but with different characteristics, would result in offspring with a blending of these characteristics. For example, if a giraffe with a long neck mated with one with a short neck; the result would be a giraffe with a medium length neck -- and all subsequent matings with short-necked giraffes would result in progressively shorter necks. Because of this, it was conceptually difficult to imagine how random fluctuations of a characteristic could become dominant within that species.

Mendel showed that characteristics could be passed on from only one of the parents. Thus, a long-necked giraffe could mate with a short-necked giraffe and produce children that had (mostly) long necks. Prior to Mendel, it was unknown how living things passed on specific characteristics. He showed that each parent individually contributes the "knowledge"* of specific characteristics, and that the children might have all, some, or none of each parent's characteristics.

* We now know that this "knowledge" is carried in the genes of the DNA, but Mendel had no idea about this.

Answer 3

Mendel studied genetics, and he discovered how we get our genes(thru random assortment)
