Empirical Probability Gregor Mendel is known as the Father of Modern Genetics, (Gregor Mendel - New World Encyclopedia:, n.d.). Gregor was pretty popular in the world of science, unfortunately while he was alive he was not recognized for any of his works with research. He was born in Austria in 1822 and his parents were agriculturalists. As a young child his family lived and owned a farm, Mendel became very intrigued with plants, shrubbery, and produce. As he grew older he absolutely loved to learn

Abstract The father of modern genetics, Gregor Mendel is accredited for discovering the basic principles of genetics, he is most known for his experiment with peas which later lead to the study of heredity Mendel most important conclusions where what we know today as principles of Mendelian inheritance which consisted of two principles the law of random segregation and the law of independent assortment (Gregor Mendel Biography.com, 2017). In this experiment, we utilized Drosophila melanogaster

Gregor Mendel's Fruit Flies Introduction      From simple heredity experiments with garden peas, to cloning sheep, the field of genetics has come a long way. Now we are closer to mapping out the human genetic map due to advances in technology, and years and years of research. Perhaps the most influential and groundbreaking scientist, Gregor Mendel, he was responsible to provide a path to where genetics is now today with his experiments of garden peas.      In lab, fruit flies were crossed

Gregor Mendel discovered the basic principles of heredity. His observations became in the foundation of modern genetics. He was born in Austria in 1822. Mendel graduated from the school with honors, in 1840. Later, his graduation, Mendel enrolled in a two-year program at the Philosophical Institute of the University of Olmütz. He again distinguished himself academically, especially in the subjects of physics and math. In 1843, Mendel began studying to be a monk at the St. Thomas Monastery in Brno
