热考素材 科学精神 Over 160 years ago, the Austrian scientist Mendel did many important experiments with pea plants. He discovered the basic rules of inheritance(遗传). This helped him make great 1. p in the study of biology. But for the next hundred years, people still didn't know why some pea plants were tall 2. w some were short。

Then, a group of international scientists worked 3. t and found more. This team was led by Cheng Shifeng from China and Noel Ellis from the UK. The scientists used modern scientific 4. t and technology to look at Mendel's 1865 experiments again. They wanted to learn more about the genetic(基因的) changes. So, after 2019, they grew more than 700 5. k of peas from Britain in China. They built special greenhouses to study the plants. Finally, they discovered the changes in pea genetics. What a great 6. s they achieved!
Cheng Shifeng said, "Mendel found out the rules of inheritance, but he didn't know what a gene was and 7. h it worked. Now we can see the changes clearly from the study."
Scientists once tried to 8. e why some pods(豆荚) are green and others yellow. This study has found out some 9. s about genes in DNA. The genes can control the colours of peas.
This study shows that with modern scientific tools, we can understand the genetic world 10. b. It's a great example of how we keep working out the mysteries of nature.
