Understanding Mendel’s Law of Segregation: The Foundation of Genetics
Gregor Mendel, the “Father of Modern Genetics,” established the foundation of genetic inheritance through his work with pea plants. His Law of Segregation, also known as the Law of Purity of Gametes, describes how alleles for a trait separate during gamete formation, ensuring offspring inherit one allele from each parent. This blog post explores Mendel’s groundbreaking principle, its scientific significance, and provides a clear example to illustrate the process. Dive into the fascinating world of genetics and understand how Mendel’s insights continue to shape our knowledge of heredity.

What is Q Cycle in the Electron Transport Chain?
What is Q Cycle?: The Q cycle (short for quinol cycle) is a series of reactions in which the lipophilic electron carrier Coenzyme Q (CoQ) undergoes sequential oxidation and reduction between its ubiquinol and ubiquinone forms, leading to the net movement of protons across a lipid bilayer in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Q cycle is a fundamental process associated with […]
