Heredity Chapter 5-2
... Mendel came to 3 important conclusions from his experimental results: 1. The inheritance of each trait is determined by “units” or “factors” that are passed on to descendants (these units were later called genes) 2. An individual inherits one such gene from each parent for each trait. 3. A trait m ...
