outcome of a monohybrid cross. 4.6.3.3 4.6.3.3 The understanding of genetics In the mid-19th century Gregor Mendel carried out breeding experiments using plants. He proposed the idea of separately inherited factors that we now call genes. In the late 19th century behaviour of chromosomes during cell division was observed. In the early 20th century it was observed that chromosomes and Mendel’s factors behaved in similar Describe some of the experiments carried out by Mendel using pea plants. Explain why Mendel proposed the idea of separately inherited factors and why the importance of this discovery was not recognised until after his death. Predict and explain the outcome of crosses using genetic diagrams based on Mendel’s experiments and using unfamiliar information. Describe a timeline showing the main developments in the understanding of inheritance. 1 Watch a video clip of Mendel’s experiments (see resources). Draw and label genetic diagrams to explain Mendel’s experiments. Interpret genetic diagrams of Mendel’s experiments. Research the main developments in the understanding of inheritance and draw a timeline. Use a model to explain genetic inheritance in pea plants and using unfamiliar information. Video clip:
