A research team from UNF went to Antarctica to study snow fish. These fish have the ability to fluoresce. The dominate trait is to fluoresce green while the recessive trait is to fluoresce yellow. All the fish were captured, blood samples were taken, and the fish were tagged. Analysis revealed the following distribution of the fish.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
