Question 1 of 10 Mendel used over 28,000 pea plants in his experiment. How does this large sample size make his results more reliable? O A. He was not sure which of the plants were female and which were male. O B. Most of the plants were unable to reproduce, so he needed many of them. O C. He used more plants so the experiment wouldn't take as long. O D. It made his actual results approach the results predicted by probability.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
