Ragos y herencia: cromosomas

Gregor Mendel's work on genetics was initially overlooked but was rediscovered in the early 20th century, forming the foundation of modern genetics. Scientists confirmed Mendel's findings on trait inheritance and identified genes within chromosomes as the carriers of genetic information. Chromosomes, found in every cell, are composed of numerous genes and are crucial in determining an organism's traits.
