Question 13 In the 1800s Gregor Mendel published a scientific paper based on pea plant experiments. In the
paper he made the following conclusion:
"Traits have two possible forms, which are determined by the inheritance of two factors.
One factor is inherited from each parent. One form of the trait is dominant and the other
recessive.
When the offspring inherit one or more dominant factors, they will display that form of
the trait."

Part A: Describe how one part of Mendel's conclusion is consistent with current scientific
knowledge of inheritance.
