• Ovist hypothesis:
Ovists thought women carried eggs containing boy
and girl children, and that the gender of the offspring
was determined well before conception
Mendel instead hypothesized that each parent contributes some particulate matter
to the offspring. He called this heritable substance "elementen." (Remember, at
this time Mendel did not know about DNA or genes.)
Experimental research needs organisms to
experiment with..
1) Clinical trials
2) Genetic/ genomic analysis
