Gregor Mendel is called the father of genetics because he was the first person in the world to observe the fact that characteristics were passed on from the parents to the children.However, he did not take much interest in human characteristics. He had more interest in the plants.e knew that passing down traits also existed in plants, and that is why he chose to study plants. He did try studying animals, but he was not successful with his attempt. Gregor Mendel was accredited with the title, father of genetics, much later after his death.
The father of genetics is Gregor Mendel, a late 19th-century scientist and Augustinian friar. Mendel studied 'trait inheritance', patterns in the way traits were handed down from parents to offspring.He observed that organisms (pea plants) inherit traits by way of discrete units of inheritance.he modern working definition of a gene is a portion (or sequence) of DNA that codes for a known cellular function or process (e.g. the function make melanin molecules). A single 'gene' is most similar to a single 'word' in the English language.
