He did not influence Darwin and Darwin did not know who he was. Darwin's ' blending theory of inheritance ' was wrong and though Darwin did not particularly like the theory he could think of nothing better to explain inheritance. There is a legend that Darwin had a copy of Mendel's work in his desk but could not read it because it was in German. Just a legend, though.

What ways did Gregor Mendel's research strengthen the theories of Charles Darwin?

Gregor Mendel's research on inheritance and genetic traits provided a mechanism for the variation observed by Charles Darwin in his theory of evolution. By demonstrating how traits are passed down from generation to generation through discrete units (genes), Mendel's work supported the idea of natural selection driving evolution by acting on heritable characteristics. This helped to reinforce Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection.


Tell what each what discovered or developed. Charles Darwin. Gregor Mendel. Marie and Pierre Curie.?

1.) Charles Darwin: Theory of Evolution 2.) Gregor Mendel: Father of Genetics (showed that parents pass on personal traits to their offspring) 3.) Marie and Pierre Curie: Discovered radioactivity.

Which person has had the greatest influence on the development of life science?

It is difficult to pinpoint just one person who has had the greatest influence on the development of life sciences, as many individuals have made significant contributions. Some notable figures include Charles Darwin, Gregor Mendel, Rosalind Franklin, and Francis Crick. Their work in areas such as evolution, genetics, and molecular biology have been pivotal in shaping our understanding of life sciences.


Who are some inventors or scientists?

Gregor Mendel Charles Darwin Francis Bacon Francis Collins Isaac Newton James Watson Francis Crick Albert Einstein


Was Darwin influenced by Mendels ideas about genetics?

No, Darwin knew nothing about Mendel's ideas and work. His, Darwin's, heritability concept was absolutely wrong. There is a legend that Darwin had a copy of Mendel's work in his desk but could not read German. The veracity of this story is often challenged.


The theory of inheritance was first proposed by an Austrian monk named?

Gregor Mendel is the father of genetics.He found the inheritance using pea plants.


Approximatley when did Mendel and Darwin develop their ideas?

Gregor Mendel developed his ideas on genetics in the 1860s through his experiments with pea plants. Charles Darwin developed his theory of evolution in the mid-19th century and published his book "On the Origin of Species" in 1859.


Who is credited with discovering the solution to Darwin's problems with inheritance?

Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monk and scientist, is credited with discovering the principles of inheritance through his work with pea plants. Mendel's experiments laid the foundation for modern genetics and helped to explain the mechanisms of inheritance that Darwin couldn't fully account for.


Did Charles Mendel develop the theory of natural selection in the 1800 and not include a genetic explanation?

No. He, whoever he may have been, neither included nor considered such as far as anyone is aware. However Gregor Mendel did significant work on genetics, though he did cheat. Charles Darwin, later, proposed a theory of evolution based on natural selection. Which is not the only theory of evolution. But seems to fit the facts.


When did Mendel and Darwin develop ideas together?

Gregor Mendel and Charles Darwin did not develop ideas together. Mendel's work on genetics and inheritance was published in 1866, several years after Darwin had already published his theory of evolution by natural selection in 1859. Their work was largely independent of each other, though their ideas have since been integrated into the modern evolutionary synthesis.


Was Mendel's work on inheritance published after Darwins lifetime?

Yes, Gregor Mendel's groundbreaking work on inheritance was published in 1866, while Charles Darwin was still alive. However, Mendel's work went largely unnoticed until it was rediscovered and accepted by the scientific community in the early 20th century.
