Biology 101 Gregor Mendel 1800s Austrian NOT AUSTRALIAN monk mathematician and scientist Began working in the garden at his monastery Father of Genetics His work led to an understanding of how traits are passed from parents to offspring. Medicine in the West: . the . r. ise . of . science. Aims. To introduce the idea and impact of laboratory medicine.. To see how the laboratory provided the context for the development of bacteriology.. What are we made of?. Trait Survey. Check yes or no. Do you have detached earlobes?. Can you roll your tongue?. Do you have dimples?. Are you right handed?. Which one is my right hand ?. Do you have freckles?. For each question you missed, write down the entire correct answer (not just the letter) and where it is at in the textbook or notes, and what it says about it.. . Example:. Question 3.

Heredity is the cause of similarities between individuals. This is the reason that brothers and sisters with the same parents resemble each other and with their parents. Variation is the cause of differences who do resemble each other are still unique individuals. Thus, we have no trouble in recognizing the differences between sisters, for example, and even ‘identical’ twins are recognized as distinctive individuals by their parents and close friends. .
