Genetic information — stored where?
In DNA, encoding traits through alleles.
Genetic information storage
Stored in DNA, encodes traits
Mendel's monohybrid experiment — purpose?
To analyze inheritance of a single gene trait.
Alleles
Different versions of a gene
Diploid genome
Two chromosome copies, two gene copies
Mendel's experiments
Controlled plant crosses, inheritance study
Monohybridism
Crossing differing in one trait
F1 generation
First offspring from pure lines
F2 generation
Offspring by crossing F1, reveals ratios
