Mendel, in his garden
_______________________________________________
Today we talked about the classic experiments with which Mendel kick-started the field of genetics. We discussed the monohybrid and dihybrid crosses that lead Mendel to propose his principles:
- Principle of segregation
- Principle of independent assortment
We then discussed human traits in which Mendel's principles can be observed. On Monday we will talk about apparent deviations from Mendel's principles.
