Which of the following states that heritable factors (genes) retain their identity generation after generation
d. particulate hypothesis of inheritance





A gene retains its identity as a discrete "particle" through generations, even though it may not be expressed in every generation (as in the case of a recessive gene). This is in contrast to the idea of blended inheritance, where genes mixed together to produce the new phenotypes seen in the offspring.
