What was the most significant conclusion that gregor mendel drew from his experimentswith pea plants?
a) there is considerable genetic variation in garden peas. b) traits are inherited in discrete units, and are not the results of ʺblending.ʺc) recessive genes occur more frequently in the f1 than do dominant ones. d) genes are composed of dna. e) an organism that is homozygous for many recessive traits is at a disadvantage.

The correct answer is: B) Traits are inherited in discrete units, and are not the results of ʺblending.ʺ

Important conclusions form Mendelian experiments are:

•  The inheritance of each trait is determined by "units" or "factors" (we call it genes today) that are passed on offspring unchanged      

•An individual inherits one unit from mother and another from father (for each trait)

•A trait may not show up in an individual but can still be passed on to the next generation (allele).

this age may represent the age of the earth's accretion, of core formation, or of the material from which the earth formed. this dating is based on evidence from radiometric age-dating of meteorite material and is consistent with the radiometric ages of the oldest-known terrestrial and lunar samples.
