The fact that the recessive trait reappeared in the F 2 generation meant that the traits remained separate (and were not blended) in the plants of the F 1 generation.

He demonstrated that traits are transmitted faithfully from parents to offspring independently of other traits and in dominant and recessive patterns.

Evolution involves changes in the gene pool, while a population in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium shows no change. Hence, populations are able to maintain a reservoir of variability so that if future conditions require it, the gene pool can change.

It can occur naturally through errors in gamete formation or be induced artificially. Polyploidy can lead to speciation, with hybrids often sterile while polyploid plants remain fertile. Although rare in animals, some instances, such as a tetraploid rat, have been recorded.

Scientists call such organisms members of the same biological species.

Key topics include monohybrid crosses, true-breeding plants, generation labels (P, F1, F2), trait ratios, and genetic postulates. It also discusses constructing pedigree trees for genetic disease analysis and emphasizes Mendel's hybridization methods and relevant terminology.
