Some Laws of Heredity 45 



3. State Mendel's law as it applies to the offspring 

 of the cross between smooth and wrinkled peas, carrying 

 the matter as far as the great-grandchildren. 



4. The hybrid peas will produce what sorts of egg 

 and sperm, and what four possible combinations may 

 there be in the fertilized eggs that will grow to new 

 seeds ? 



5. Can you find other instances of the working of 

 Mendel's law besides those given ? Possibly you have 

 raised pigeons or corn, and can give illustrations of 

 some of the matters discussed from your own experience 

 in crossing different varieties. 



6. Will some members of the class undertake to 

 try out a cross with some animals or plants so as to 

 illustrate Mendel's law with actual materials which the 

 class may see ?
