- Q1Before Mendel's discoveries, which statement describes how people believed traits were inherited?Traits from only the female parent are inherited by offspring.Parental traits have no effect on their offspring.Parental traits blend like colors of paint to produce offspring.Traits from only the male parent are inherited by offspring.30s
- Q2How did Mendel gather evidence to prove the theory of inheritance?observing the traits in his family treecontrolled breeding of catsobserving the traits of offspring in dogs he bredcontrolled breeding of pea plants30s
- Q3What was Mendel's conclusion, based on the evidence?Multiple genetic factors control each trait.Two genetic factors control each trait.One genetic factor controls each trait.Traits are a blend of both parents' genes.30s
- Q4What evidence did Mendel discover that supports his theory of inheritance?When pollinating a white plant and a purple plant, the offspring was lavendar, which proved co-dominance as a genetic factor.When pollinating a white plant and a purple plant, the offspring was purple, which proved dominant traits as a genetic factor.When pollinating a white plant and a purple plant, the offspring was lavendar, which proved that traits are a blend of both genes.When pollinating a white plant and a purple plant, the offspring was white, which proved traits depended on the number of genes present as genetic factors.30s
