    The scientific method is a process used by scientists to investigate questions and hypotheses through experimentation and observation. It involves stating a problem, researching the issue, designing and conducting a controlled experiment, formulating a hypothesis, analyzing data, drawing a conclusion, and reporting findings. Gregor Mendel used this method to study inheritance in pea plants. He observed traits, formulated a hypothesis about dominant and recessive genes, conducted controlled crosses of pea plants, analyzed the results, and concluded that genes are passed unchanged from parents to offspring. His findings established the laws of inheritance.

    What is the Scientific

    Method?
    By: Patrick Hess
    ● The Scientific Method is a process in which scientists ask questions about the
    world and design experiments to test the hypothesis.
    ● Hypothesis, what is a hypothesis you may be asking yourself? A hypothesis is
    a is testable but not proven answer to the scientific question.
    Before you get too carried away you need to know the steps of the Scientific Method.

    1. State the problem, ask a question, or


    make and observation
    2. Research the issue
    3. Gather data via a controlled experiment
    4. Formulate a Hypothesis
    5. Analyze data
    6. Form a conclusion
    7. Repeat to verify results
    8. Report to scientific community
    Let me introduce you to an old Friend.
    ● This is Gregor Johann Mendel
    ● He observed and tested his hypothesis of
    the genetic inheritance of pea plants.
    Mendel’s Question
    He asked if purple flowered peas were crossed with white flowered peas if the
    offspring of the two parent plant would mostly have purple flowers.

    He also asked if certain traits were


    dominant over other traits that are called
    recessive traits.
    Mendel’s Research
    Mendel’s work was primarily based on pea plant and their ease to cross pollinate
    he found that a broad spectrum of pea plants can be crossed to together and that
    is where he started his work.
    Mendel’s data collection via controlled experiment.
    Mendel grew a garden of peas and cross pollinated different variations of peas
    together. He combined the following alles together.
    Mendel’s Hypothesis
    Mendel’s Hypothesis was that certain traits in peas are dominant and always
    result in that trait. Also he observed recessive traits that disappeared after one
    generation, but reappeared after two generations giving him reason to think these
    alles need two of the recessives together.
    Mendel’s Analysis of Data
    Mendel concluded that

    1. The inheritance of each trait is determined by genes that are passed on to offspring

    unchanged.

    2. An individual inherits one such unit from each parent for each trait.

    3. A trait may not show up in directly in the offspring, but can

    still be passed on to the next generation.


    Mendel’s conclusion
    He proved his hypothesis and also created laws of Mendelian Inheritance.

    ● The First Law is The principle of segregation : The two members of a gene
    pair separate from each other in the formation of gametes.
    ● Gamete-Pollen or egg
    ● The Second Law is The principle of independent assortment : Genes for
    different traits assort independently of one another in the formation of
    gametes.
    He repeated his experiments countless times
    And verified results each time.
    Mendel Sharing his findings
    Mendel Shared his findings with the scientific community through a book titled the
    Experiments on Plant Hybridization
