Question

When studying pea plants, Gregor Mendel made many interesting discoveries and came to a few conclusions about what happens as a result of fertilization. Mendel believed that the characteristics of pea plants are determined by the a Health of both parents at the time of pollination b Inheritance of traits from both parents c Inheritance of traits from one parent d Health of parent the trait was passed on from

Answer 1

Gregor Mendel's key conclusion regarding the characteristics of pea plants is b) Inheritance of traits from both parents. Mendel's experiments demonstrated that traits are passed from parents to offspring through discrete units of inheritance (now known as genes), and he established the foundational principles of heredity through his work on the inheritance patterns of traits in pea plants.
