father of genetics
first person to predict how traits are passed down. his laws are applicable to all organisms. however they are not all aplicable to all the traits.

law of segregation
alleles seprate during meiosis, for gamete formation. the ratio is created only if the gametes are segregated
law of independant assortment
pairs of allees are sorted independently from one another during meiosis. dyhybrid.
