Question
What are the main generalizations given after Mendel’s experiments on the pea plant?
✓
Answer
After the Mendel’s laws of inheritance and his experiments, following generalizations were made:
- Single trait is shown due to single gene. Every single gene has two contrasting alleles.
- Two alleles are always in interaction in which one is completely dominant while other is completely recessive.
- Factors which were later called genes for different traits are always present on different chromosomes. These traits can assort independently of each other.
