Document Summary
Chapter 3: genetics: form mendel to human genome project: Mendel was monk in austria, found the mod of inheritance in all organism(sexual) who solved the problem posed by darwin"s mistaken idea of blending inheritance in his experiment in plant hybirdization . He argued that inheritance was actually a particulate process and that the actual material that was inherited maintained its existance throughout the generations. He suggested that each traits that determined by presence of a pair of inherited factors(alleles). First law: the law of segregation: states that these pairs segregate during reproduction and come together during sex 1 form each parent in a child ( found this in his 3:1 rattio of f1 and f2 pure breeding crosses). Law of independent assortment states that each alleles (i. e. color and shape) segregate independently of each other giving us 9:3:3;1 ratio which is. Completely unknow to darwin until in 1900 some european botanist found it.
