Which of the following conclusions was a result of Gregor Mendel's observations? A: Organisms that give rise to purebreds are genetically superior B: Organisms that have intermediate features are self-pollinating C: Organisms inherit two copies of each gene, one from each parent D: Organisms that self-pollinate do not have "either-or" features

What was the most significant conclusion that Gregor Mendel drew from his experiments with pea plants? Select one: a. There is considerable genetic variation in garden peas. b. Genes are composed of DNA. c. Recessive genes occur more frequently in the F1 generation than do dominant ones. d. Traits are inherited in discrete units (genes), and are not the results of "blending."

Which statement best summarizes Gregor Mendel's contribution to science? A) Mendel invented the green pea by cross-breeding thousands of pea plants. B) Mendel discovered green peas and yellow peas C) Mendel increased the number of peas produced by a single plant using cross-breeding techniques D) Mendel is considered the "father of genetics"

Which of the following observations led Mendel to conclude that some traits were recessive? A. Plants with a certain form of each trait were more likely to survive and reproduce than plants with other forms of each trait. B. The offspring produced during his first set of experiments expressed one form of a trait, while the offspring produced during his second set of experiments expressed a different form of the trait. C. When he crossed plants that expressed different forms of a trait, one form always "disappeared" and never "reappeared in later generations. D. The form of a trait that seemed to "disappear" during his first set of experiments "reappeared" during his second set of experiments.
