Answers
Genetics deals with the inheritance and variations of traits from parents to offspring. The mystery behind genetics was unlocked during the mid-nineteenth century by a monk called Gregor Mendel in the mid-nineteenth century. He conducted experiments to understand the basis for inheritance, i.e., why dogs give birth only to dogs but not to humans. Nowadays, Mendel’s experimental observations and discoveries serve as the fundamental for the inheritance which is famously called as Mendel’s law of inheritance.
