brown hair, what does that tell you about the
allele for blonde hair?

Short Answer
What did Mendel discover about genetic factors
in pea plants?
Short Answer
What did Mendel discover about genetic factors
in pea plants?
For each trait, the plants got one factor from
each parent. Two recessive factors resulted in
a recessive trait. One or two dominate factors
resulted in a dominant trait.
Short Answer
What is the role of DNA in determining an
organism’s traits?
Short Answer
What is the role of DNA in determining an
organism’s traits?
DNA is the genetic materials that contains
genes. Genes contain information about an
organisms traits.
