Talk:European History/European Imperialism and Nationalism

In his book On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection, Charles Darwin wrote that creatures experience genetic mutations prior to birth. Clarification of this sentence is required. Darwin was not aware of "genetic mutations". Mendel's work with hybrid crosses with peas was the door to understanding genetic mutations; but while he was conducting his experiments between 1856 and 1863, his research was not known until 1900 by de Vries and Corran. While this is a small point, it is a very important one, as it implies an understanding of meiotic processes (and thereby an understanding of biology) that was unknown before the rediscovery of Mendel's work.
