Topic > Gergor Mendel's Incredible Understanding of...

Gergor Mendel incredibly realized that he had found the fundamental understanding and principle of heredity. He came to three conclusions: 1. After this incredible breakthrough and discovery, he performed a second experiment. Mendel wanted to observe whether several different traits could be inherited together, whether or not the traits manifested themselves in offspring. He observed seven important traits that could be easily identified, known as phenotypes. These traits or characteristics were 1. Flower color Purple or white 2. Flower axil and terminal position 3. Short and long stem length 4. Smooth or wrinkled seeds 5. Yellow or green seeds 6. Whether the pods were swollen or shrunk 7. Yellow or green pods. In this second experiment he discovered that the “factors” (Genes), as Mendel called them, were dominant over the other less dominant ones (recessive alleles). For example, the color of the seeds of the pea plant, in the F1 generation they were all yellow and no green. Once again the question arose: have the characteristics of the green color disappeared. So Mendel continued and in F2 (second generation) he discovered that there were green seeds. He discovered that for every three yellow seeds he had one green seed a ratio of 3:1. Mendel named the offspring of the parental generation as First Generation (F1). Within the F1 generation, he observed something innovative and unexpected. The F1 generation had no white flowers but were all purple flowers. He was perplexed and anxious to know why this was so; questions arose about what had happened to the white flower feature. Had the characteristics of the white flower disappeared and dissolved? If this were the case, then one could logically assume that the post-F1 generation would not have had…half of the paper…until the conclusion was made that genetic information and traits were inherited completely randomly. variation and sequences. At the time, the general thinking was that a person's traits and characters were diluted and then inherited by offspring. Gregor Mendel was the first person in the field of scientific studies to conduct an experiment that demonstrated that there was still much to understand about heredity and traits. The false ideology was understood by the people, but later Gregor Mendel managed to conclude with his initial hypothesis. However, since Gregor Mendel's theory was completely innovative for scientists of the time, they recognized the proposed theory and did not accept it. The theory proposed by Gregor Mendel was not considered until the early 1900s that Mendel's work had been approved by scientists while he was deceased.
