What evidence is there that chromosomes carry genetic information?

Chromosomes contain DNA, which is the molecule that carries genetic information. Through experiments such as those done by Gregor Mendel and the discovery of the structure of DNA by Watson and Crick, it has been shown that variations in chromosomes lead to variations in inherited traits. This confirms that chromosomes indeed carry genetic information.


Was Gregor Mendel's theory of heredity accepted?

Mendel's work was rejected at first, and it was not widely accepted until after he died. The common belief at the time was that Darwin's theory of pangenes were responsible for inheritance. About 20 years after his death, his work was rediscovered by Hugo de Vries, Carl Correns, and Erich von Tschermak

How did mendels experiments would have been different if he had not worked with true breeding plants?

If Mendel's experiments were not true breeding, then he would not be ablt to tell the recessive alleles showed up in the F2 progeny. Since the F1 generation would have showed the dominant trait regardless, the only way to show the recessive alleles carry to the F2 is to have true breeding parents.


What are Mendel's factors today called?

For him they were just discrete physical units of inheritance. Johanson coined the term "gene" and people started calling them genes. Today for us these factors are parts of DNA, the base sequences that carry the biological information to determine a trait. Mendel factors are alleles of genes.

Scientists used data from Gregor Mendels studies to choke that information about traits passed from parents to offspring through?

Scientists used data from Gregor Mendel's studies to determine that information about traits is passed from parents to offspring through discrete units called genes. These genes are located on chromosomes and carry the instructions for specific traits that are inherited by offspring from their parents. Mendel's work laid the foundation for the field of genetics.

Genes carry the information that determines what?

Genes carry the information that determines an organism's traits, such as its physical characteristics, behavior, and some aspects of its physiology. This information is encoded in the DNA sequence of the genes and is passed down from parents to offspring through the process of inheritance.
