Question

7.2. describe the importance of gregor mendels experiments to our understanding of inheritance. which of the following contributions has gregor mendel made toward our understanding of genetics and inheritance? correct answer(s) different traits are inherited independently of one another. most traits in humans are influenced by multiple genes. dna is the genetic material. each gamete carries only one of the two copies of the parents alleles.

Explanation:

Mendel's laws include the law of independent assortment (different traits are inherited independently) and the law of segregation (each gamete has one of two allele - copies from parents). The discovery that DNA is the genetic material was not Mendel's work, and the concept of polygenic inheritance (most traits influenced by multiple genes) came later.

Answer:

• Different traits are inherited independently of one another.
• Each gamete carries only one of the two copies of the parent’s alleles.
