2 Mendel  Gregor Mendel answered the genetic question of evolution. He did this using plants  Crossbreeding of plants = offspring neither the colour of the mom or dad plant but a different one  Therefore, when 2 flowers were bread the one flower’s dominant unit dictated the colour.

4  Mendel’s work indicates that humans inherit a variety of characteristics from their biological parents yet still maintain a unique DNA  Over generations traits could be passed down and altered. ( If a parent has red hair, this trait may be passed down to the grandchildren and skip a generation)

5 Conclusion to Mendel  If this is correct, they would explain how our ancestors evolved from primitive humanoids to a more sophisticated species.

6 Human Proof of Evolution:  In 1924 Raymond Dart discovered the fossil of a child in South Africa that was over 2 million years old. He named the skull Australopithecus Africanus.  More discoveries of various skulls indicate an evolutionary pattern.
