Biology

elena-s [515]3 years ago

Explanation:

All living things consist of cells in their bodies. There are trillions of cells in a human body. Cells form the structure of the body. Cells cannot survive on their own, because they continuously need energy to perform different functions of the body of the living things. Functions of living things may include growth, repair, reproduction, movement, etc. So cells take nutrients from the food which a living thing eats, convert those nutrients into energy and then use that energy to perform the above mentioned tasks. So Energy is needed by all living things to stay alive.

dusya [7]
All of the answers presented above are correct.
Before Gregor Mendel's research, it was believed that parents' characteristics were passed down to the next generation were not inherited as separate units, but blended together in the next generation.
While he was studying the inheritance of different traits of the pea plant such as the height of the plant, the shape and color of the seed and the variability of the color of the flowers.
During his experiments, he noticed that the simple traits as height were passed down to the filial generation separately, so they were not blending in the next generation as it was previously thought. 
He managed to get purebred plants for certain traits by self-pollination of the pea plants and used them for this experiments.
He determined that some of the traits were expressed more often and with a higher ratio and called them dominant, as opposed to recessive traits that were expressed less often when cross-breeding with an individual with a dominant trait.
