Before Mendel, people had observed inheritance of dominant and recessive traits by following many.......?

.........generations of plants and animals. What was different about Mendel's work?





a. His results were immediately accepted and applied to other studies.


b. He followed more generations than anyone else.


c. He did both cross- and self-fertilizations.


d. He kept careful count of his results, including mathematical analysis.


e. He used a plant that had never been cultivated before.

D. It is the fact that he included mathematical analysis (in fact his paper was not readily accepted because it was mostly figures). He did not allow self-fertilization to occur to ensure that he knows the parental phenotypes.





The use of pea plant was not the first in history of studying inheritance. He never studied so many generation but he wrote any result and interpreted it using mathematical skills.
