+====== Gregor Mendel ======
+===== Profession =====
+Gregor Mendel, born Johann Mendel, was an Austrian scientist and Augustinian friar.[([[https://www.britannica.com/biography/Gregor-Mendel|britannica]])]
+===== Birth =====
+He was born on July 20, 1822, in Heinzendorf, Austria (now Hynčice, Czech Republic).[([[https://gregormendel200.org/gregor-mendel-2/his-life/|gregormendel200]])]
+===== Father Of Modern Genetics =====
+Mendel is often referred to as the "father of modern genetics" for his groundbreaking work on inheritance in pea plants.[([[https://www.socratica.com/pages/gregor-mendel|socratica]])]
+===== Experiments On Plants =====
+He conducted his experiments on pea plants between 1856 and 1863 in the garden of the Monastery of St. Thomas in Brno, Czech Republic.[([[https://www.radio.cz/en/static/inventors/mendel|radio]])]
+===== Laws Of Inheritance =====
+Mendel's experiments laid the foundation for the laws of inheritance, which became known as Mendelian genetics.[([[http://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/gregor-mendel-and-the-principles-of-inheritance-593|nature]])]
+===== Unnoticed Until 20th Century =====
+His work remained largely unnoticed until it was rediscovered at the turn of the 20th century.[([[https://www.jstor.org/stable/2707967|jstor]])]
+===== Studied At University Of Vienna =====
+Mendel studied at the University of Vienna, where he initially pursued a degree in physics and later switched to biology.[([[https://study.com/academy/lesson/gregor-mendel-genetics-experiments-laws-discovery.html|study]])]
+===== Studied Under Christian Doppler =====
+He also studied mathematics under the renowned mathematician Christian Doppler.[([[https://mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Doppler/|mathshistory]])]
+===== Cross-Breeding Pea Plants =====
+Mendel's experiments involved carefully controlling the cross-breeding of pea plants with distinct traits, such as height, flower color, and seed texture.[([[https://bio.libretexts.org/Courses/Community_College_of_Vermont/Human_Biology_(Gabor_Gyurkovics)/16%3A_Inheritance_and_Biotechnology/16.02%3A_Mendel's_Experiments_and_Laws_of_Inheritance|libretexts]])]
+===== Traits Of Pea Plants =====
+He meticulously recorded the traits of each successive generation of pea plants.[([[https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/from-pea-plants-creativity-unveiling-principles-gregor-chandan-patary-dfric|linkedin]])]
+===== Law of Segregation and the Law of Independent Assortment =====
+From his experiments, Mendel formulated two fundamental principles known as the Law of Segregation and the Law of Independent Assortment.[([[https://www.khanacademy.org/science/ap-biology/heredity/mendelian-genetics-ap/a/the-law-of-independent-assortment|khanacademy]])]
+===== Headline =====
+The Law of Segregation states that alleles (alternative forms of a gene) separate during gamete formation, with each gamete carrying only one allele for each trait.[([[https://www.ndsu.edu/pubweb/~mcclean/plsc431/mendel/mendel1.htm|ndsu]])]
+===== Law of Independent Assortment =====
+The Law of Independent Assortment states that different traits are inherited independently of each other.[([[https://www.studysmarter.co.uk/explanations/biology/heredity/law-of-independent-assortment/|studysmarter]])]
+===== Challenged Inheritance =====
+Mendel's work challenged prevailing ideas of inheritance at the time, which were largely based on blending inheritance.[([[http://www.scientus.org/Mendel-Darwin.html|scientus]])]
+===== Published His Findings =====
+He published his findings in 1866 in the journal Proceedings of the Natural History Society of Brünn.[([[https://embryo.asu.edu/pages/experiments-plant-hybridization-1866-johann-gregor-mendel|embryo]])]
