Q

3 previous notions of inheritance

A
  • pangenesis
  • homunculus theory
  • blending theory
17
Q

it was the belief that seeds are produced in different organs and will later on gather to form the offspring.

A

pangenesis

18
Q

the invention of microscope made people believe that sperm cells bear a homunculus or little man.

A

homunculus theory

19
Q

states that the traits of parents blend every generation of offspring.

A

blending theory
