The below mentioned article highlight the two experiments of Mendel. The experiments are: (1) Segregation and Dominance: Monohybrid Experiments and (2) Independent Assortment: Dihybrid and Trihybrid Experiments. Experiment # 1. Segregation and Dominance: Monohybrid Experiments: After several preliminary trials, Mendel selected the edible pea (Pisum sativum) for his subject. Following his idea that the heredity of each character must be [...]
The below mentioned article will highlight the two types of experiment performed by Mendel. The two types of experiment performed by Mendel are: (1) Back Cross Experiment and (2) Test Cross Experiment. Experiment # i. Back Cross: When F1 individuals are crossed with one of the two parents (either CC—red flowered or cc—white flowered) from which they have been derived, [...]
Let us make an in-depth study of the chromosomal theory of inheritance. Mendel held that the traits were transmitted from generation to generation as discrete, stable, particulate units of heredity called factors, now termed as genes. He did not know the location of the factors (genes) in the cell because the existence of chromosomes in the nucleus, the role of [...]
