How did Mendel's novel approach contribute to his success in describing how traits are inherited?

Answer 1

Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "Mendel" to get these possible sources:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregor_Mendel
http://www.accessexcellence.org/RC/AB/BC/Gregor_Mendel.html
http://www.accessexcellence.org/RC/VL/GG/mendel.html
http://www.mendelweb.org/
http://sonic.net/~nbs/projects/anthro201/disc/

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
