Should we give (Mendel's) peas a chance? Nah, we've moved on.

His plates were moreso a proof of concept to show that the pea colour trait was more variable than Mendel was letting on. It certainly wasn’t a binary. 13:50 - It was Mendel's 200th birthday LAST year actually, but this video took so long to make that I never picked up that mistake in the script as the new year ticked over. Oh well, happy belated 200th birthday Mendel. -- Thank you to Gautam Shine for supporting this video! #Mendel200 #genetics #biology
