Ok, a few things here:
This is an egg drop experiment, so I'm assuming you are testing out different ways of protecting the egg.
The independent variable is what you want to change: This would be the type of protection you have on the egg
The dependent variable is what would be effected by the changes in the independent variable: which would be something like the integrity of the egg after it hits the ground. You'd have to measure that somehow.
There are two types of controlled variables: <em>Internal and External.</em>
Internal variables are within the scope of the experiment and can be controlled, whereas external variables are outside the scope of the experiment and we have no control over them.
Internal:
- Height of the drop
- Type of egg
- Person dropping
- How the egg is dropped
- Surface being dropped on to
External:
- The person designated to drop the egg is sick
- You run out of eggs to drop
- Somebody loses all the planning for the experiment
- The weather forces you to do the experiment inside versus outside
- The wind blows your egg off course, leading to it hitting the ground at an angle
So, the way your teacher "chucks" the eggs off the roof should be a controlled internal variable. The action should be done as consistently as possible to avoid an uncontrolled variable.

Answer:
Please find the explanation of the four possible exceptions to Mendelian genetics below.
Explanation:
Genetics, generally, has to do with how genes are inherited or transferred from parents to offsprings. Gregor Mendel, however, explained this concept in his principles of inheritance called Mendelian genetics. There are, however, exceptions to this mendelian principle called Non-mendelian pattern of inheritance i.e patterns of inheritance that do not follow Mendel's principles. Four of them are explained below:
- Incomplete dominance- This non-mendelian inheritance pattern occurs when one allele of a gene does not completely mask its allelic pair, but instead forms an intermediate phenotype. This is in contrast with Mendelian genetics that proposes complete dominance. For example, a red and white flower produce a pink flower (intermediate).
- Codominance- This is another non-mendelian inheritance where two alleles of a gene are simultaneously expressed. For example, roan cattles is a combination of both red and white hairs.
- Multiple alleles: Some traits in a population are controlled by more than two alleles, as explained in mendelian inheritance. Examples of trait controlled by multiple alleles is height in humans.
- Sex-linked inheritance: Some traits are controlled by genes on sex chromosomes i.e. X and Y chromosomes. This genes exhibit inheritance pattern that are different from Mendel's. Example is haemophilia disease controlled by an affected gene on the X-chromosome.
