Gregor Mendel's work primarily focused on the inheritance of traits in pea plants, which laid the foundation for the field of genetics.
Mendel's principles of inheritance, including the concepts of dominant and recessive traits, were crucial in understanding how traits are passed from one generation to the next.
The Theory of Heredity, which Mendel's work supports, explains how genetic information is transmitted through generations, influencing traits in organisms.
While Mendel's work is more directly related to genetics, it indirectly supports Organic Chemistry by providing insights into the molecular basis of heredity, which involves DNA and RNA, key organic molecules.
Mendel's ideas helped bridge the gap between biology and chemistry, leading to a deeper understanding of the chemical nature of genetic material and its role in heredity.
