Mendelian Genetics and the Laws of Heredity

The video introduces Gregor Mendel, the father of genetics, and his groundbreaking experiments with pea plants. Mendel's observations led to the discovery of fundamental laws of heredity: the law of segregation, the law of dominance, and the law of independent assortment. These laws explain how traits are inherited and have laid the foundation for modern genetics. The video concludes by highlighting the complexity of genetics beyond Mendel's initial findings and hints at future topics in the series.
