Mendel laws


Gregor Mendel studied the garden pea height, flower color, seed coat color, and seed shape over many generations. He chose 1 or 2 traits per generation to watch acrossed plants with different traits and learned that offspring usually had dominate trait.
No matter what trait he selected for the second generation would show traits at a ratio of 3 to 1 (3 dominat
Mendel found that the inheritance of traits was not due to blending but instead specific traits or units of inheritance were passed from generation to generation we call those units of inheritance genes.
