What is heredity? What are Mendel's law of Inheritance? Learn with Kimavi in just one minute!

Heredity is the biological process of passing down genetic information (genes) from parents to their offspring.

Genes are segments of DNA that contain instructions for the development of a living organism.

Gregor Mendel, an Austrian monk, formulated the laws of inheritance in the mid-1800s.

Mendel’s laws of inheritance explain how traits are passed from parent to offspring.

The first law states that during reproduction, one randomly chosen gene from each parent is passed to the offspring.

The second law states that the progeny will have a combination of traits from both parents.

Mendel’s laws of inheritance help scientists understand the inheritance of traits and how they are passed down through generations.
