What is gregor Mendel first invention?

Gregor Mendel is best known for his work in genetics, specifically his experiments with pea plants that led to the discovery of the basic principles of heredity. He did not invent anything in the traditional sense, but his work laid the foundation for the field of genetics.

What did Mendel use to predict what percent of offspring would show a popular trait?

probability based on principle of dominance and independent assortment of gametes

What is George Mendel known as?

=george mendel was a scientist/botanist/physican and the one who discovered something about cells/was a goood physictian=

What obstacles did Gregor Mendel face?

Matthias Schleiden discovered plant living cells and his obstacles were to become famous from discovered cells.

Where did Gregor Mendel travel?

Gregor Mendel traveled with other scientists to London.

Why was Mendel successful when studying the pea plant?

Because of his background in statistics and physics.

How did Mendel's use of purebred plants for example purebred white and purebred purple-flowered peas-contribute his understanding of inheritance?

Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.

How did mendel find out whether the recessive allele were still present in the f1 plants?

he breeded the f1 plants with a recessive homozygous plant and if the offspring (f2) showed the recessive allele, then the recessive allele is still present in the f1 plant

Did anyone help Gregor Mendel with his science?

No, Gregor Mendel conducted his pea plant experiments independently without assistance from others. His work on genetics laid the foundation for the modern understanding of inheritance and the field of genetics.

How did mendel make th F1 generation for his expiriments?

Mendels' f2 generation produce a 3:1 ratio of tall plants. By crossing true tall with true short , homologous chromosomes, he wound up with three types of plants, true tall, true short, and tall with a short allele.

Did Gregor Mendel won any awards?

i think a teaching degree i think a teaching degree i think a teaching degree

According to Gregor Mendel what particles caused inherited characteristics?

Gregor Mendel proposed that inherited characteristics are determined by discrete units called "factors" (now known as genes) that are passed down from parents to offspring. These genes come in pairs, with one copy inherited from each parent, and they influence the traits and characteristics that an organism develops. Mendel's work laid the foundation for the modern understanding of how traits are inherited.

Why did Gregor Mendel not pollinate the first generation pea plants?

Mendel allowed the offspring of his experimental plants to self-pollinate. That is, he allowed the male and female reproductive cells of the same plant to join and produce a seed. One of the characteristics of pea plants is that it is easy to cross different pea plants but, left to themselves, they self-pollinate with little chance of any accidental pollination between plants.

What does Gregor Mendel law of dominance state?

Mendel's law of dominance states that if you have a pair of genes then the one that shows up in the offspring is most likely the dominant gene because the dominant is passed along more often than the recessive.

What is the chief clerk's reaction to seeing gregor for the first time after gregor's transformation?

Gregor's father forces Gregor back into his room by threatening to hit him with a stick and a newspaper

What does gregor say to luxa as a joke?

These moments of levity help to strengthen their bond and showcase Gregor's character as someone who can find humor even in dark times.

Why is height an exception to Mendel's principles of heredity?

although its genetic its traits arent the offspring of the parent generation.
