What to Focus On

  • Heredity is the passing of traits from parents to offspring.
  • Variation refers to differences among individuals of the same species.
  • Mutations and genetic recombination are the main sources of variation.
  • Mendel used garden pea (Pisum sativum) for his experiments.
  • Pea plants have clear contrasting traits and allow controlled pollination.
  • He studied seven pairs of contrasting characters over generations.
  • Monohybrid cross studies one pair of contrasting traits.
  • F1 generation shows only the dominant trait.
  • F2 generation shows a 3:1 phenotypic ratio and 1:2:1 genotypic ratio.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Dominant traits are always more common in a population.

Phenotypic ratio is the same as genotypic ratio in monohybrid cross.

Mendel’s laws apply to all genes in all organisms equally.
