Explore how Mendel's laws unfold through chromosomes, cells, and inheritance.
This work surveys experimental biology and cytology to explain life from the physical and chemical makeup of living matter. It presents the idea that chromosomes carry the hereditary units and details how segregation, independent assortment, and crossing over shape genetic patterns. The text traces sex-chromosome inheritance, cytoplasmic and maternal inheritance, and the particulate view of genes, supported by extensive illustrations and diagrams. What you’ll experience

The rapid increase of specialization makes it impossible for one author to cover satisfactorily the whole field of modern Biology. This situation, which exists in all the sciences, has induced English authors to issue series of monographs in Biochemistry, Physiology and Physics. A number of American biologists have decided to provide the same opportunity for the study of Experimental Biology. Biology, which not long ago was purely descriptive and speculative, has begun to adopt the methods of the exact sciences recognizing that for permanent progress not only experiments are required but quantitative experiments. It will be the purpose of this series of monographs to emphasize and further as much as possible this development of Biology. Experimental Biology and General Physiology are one and the same science, in method as well as content, since both aim at explaining life from the physico-chemical constitution of living matter. The series of monographs onE xperimental Biology will therefore include the field of traditional General Physiology. Jacques Loeb, T. H. Morgan, rV WOSTERHOUT.
