What is an example of Mendel’s first hypothesis regarding patterns of inheritance? What
important vocabulary word do we learn in this hypothesis?
Solution
Gregor Johann Mendel studied the pea plant in his garden. He selected characters that were
easily identifiable. He grew the plants he selected to make sure they were pure – i.e. they were
pure line. A pure line is a plant that does not show any variation for the particular character
under study. Based on his studies, and the careful records he maintained, Mendel proposed his
first hypothesis as;
Vocabulary
Trait
Factors
Genes
Alleles
Homozygous
Heterozygous
Dominant
Recessive
F1
