Blog 8: Letter to Mendel

Dear Gregor Mendel,
Your genetic discoveries of factors and P1 and F1 can be explained through the structure of DNA and how genetic traits are passed down. DNA is in the form of a double helix and has counterparts that correspond exactly with it's partner, so when it is duplicates, the replica will be the exact same. From there, each half of the DNA gets passed on to the next generation. That is why when the parent generation (P1) have offsprings, the next generation (F1) will have a blend of each parents traits.
Your friend,
Shoha
