chromatid 染色单体
A replicated chromosome physically attached to an identical chromatid at the centromere. centromere 着丝粒

telophase (分裂)末期
Last stage in mitosis during which daughter nuclei are formed.
Division of the cytoplasm of one cell into two cytokinesis 胞质分裂 new cells.
cell plate 细胞板

Foundations of Genetics
Early Theories of inheritanee
Early ideas of inheritance included Hippocrates' theory of pangenesis and August Weismands germ plasm theory. Based on experiments with mice, Weismann proposed that hereditary information in gametes transmitted traits to progeny. Both of these early views incorporated the blending theory: they held that heritable traits of the two parents blend, so that the distinct characteristics of each are lost in offspring.
遗传学的早期理论包括泛生说和种质理论。基于小鼠实验,维丝曼提出遗传信息储存在配子中并将遗传信息传递给后代。这两个早期观点合起来形成融合理论:子代拥有父母本混合的遗传特征,而不完全象亲代。
