mathematics. In 1856 he started to experiment with pea plants to explain why certain traits that appeared in one generation did not always reappear in the next generation. During eight years Mendel mixed over 30‚000 plants by controlling their pollination and wanted to know why the results came to be. Mendel noticed that although there were some traits that were common amongst all the pea plants there was over a dozen traits that were not such as seed coat color and texture. By cross breeding pea

Study shows disadvantages of GM foods to human health British scientific researchers demonstrated that genetically modified DNA from crops can find its way into human gut bacteria‚ raising possible health concerns. This is because antibiotic-resistant marker genes are inserted with GM material‚ which could cause a person to be resistant to antibiotic medicines. The study was conducted at Newcastle University on seven human volunteers who‚ in the past‚ had their lower intestine removed and now use
