Heridity Journals

Heredity had been observed for millennia, monastic, a scientist and Augustinian friar working within the 19th century, was the primary to review genetics scientifically. Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns within the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring. He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete "units of inheritance". This term, still used today, may be a somewhat ambiguous definition of what's cited as a gene. Genetic processes add combination with an organism's environment and experiences to influence development and behavior, often brought up as nature versus nurture. The intracellular or extracellular environment of a living cell or organism may switch gene transcription on or off.
