Concept map on MENDEL'S LAWS. This concept map illustrates Mendel's Laws, which explain how hereditary traits are transmitted from parents to offspring. Gregor Mendel, a monk and scientist, is considered the founder of genetics. Through experiments with pea plants, he studied the dominance, segregation, and independent assortment of traits. His three laws describe the behavior of genes during gamete formation and fertilization.
This model is the basis of modern genetics and the understanding of biological heredity.
