Question

State law of dominance

Answer 1

Answer:

Inheritance is the acquiring of genetic characteristics or traits from parents by their offspring.

In the year 1860, Gregor Johann Mendel, father and founder of genetics unlocked the mystery of genetics. He conducted many experiments on the pea plants and observed their pattern of inheritance from one generation to the next generation. His investigation led to the discovery of three laws of inheritance, famously known as Mendel’s Laws of Inheritance.

The Law of Dominance, Law of Segregation and Law of Independent Assortment are the three Mendel’s laws of inheritance. These laws came into existence by the experiments on pea plants in a variety of differing traits. Mendel started his research with monohybrid cross.

Mendel observed that traits which were absent in the F1 generation had reappeared in the F2 generation. These observations led to the formulation of the Law of Dominance and the Law of Segregation.

Answer 2

Mandel's third law is also known as law of dominance. It states that one of the factors for pairs is inherited traits will be dominant and other recessive , unless both factors are recessive.
