The Garden of Inheritance Movie Summary
Throughout the presentation of the film, I learned very interesting facts about Gregor Mendel. Firstly, he was a part of the Augustine order. He would make friends of house mice, which he would then use in his breeding experiments. Father Ramsik did not support Gregor Mendel's experimentation at all and criticized his work by saying that it was secular.

The Abbot of the monastery on the other hand supported and was fond of research and science. Aside from experimenting, Gregor Mendel was also trying to get his teaching certificate. After taking the test, one of the test examiners suggested that Father Gregor Mendel had to study more and that he should attend the University of Vienna for 2 years.

I also learned that Gregor Mendel used to be poor and that is one of the main reasons why he "converted." Additionally, Gregor Mendel was on his own since the age of 16 when his brother in law took over the farm. Gregor's father had nothing to send to him which is why Gregor was always starving.

Later on, he presented his views to the council and they dismissed his work saying that Gregor was not accepting scientific truths and instead was
