Question

Relate how Mendel's experimental approach Is similar to the process of modem scientific inquiry.

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

A modern scientific inquiry system uses the scientific method to understand and explain the natural phenomenon.

The scientific theory involves various steps which begin with making an observation , asking questions, doing background research and proposing a hypothesis. The hypothesis is tested through experiments which prove or disproves the hypothesis which when established form laws and theory.

The Mendel followed the same approach unaware of the scientific method and performed experiments to answer the scientific question of how traits are controlled and passed on in generations.   He analysed the conclusions which were proved after his death by other scientists and framed the biological laws called Mendel's law of inheritance.

Thus, Mendel's inquiries followed the same steps of the scientific method.
