Bridges, Calvin Blackman (1889–1938)
American geneticist who helped prove the chromosomal basis of heredity and sex. His work with Thomas Hunt Morgan on the fruit fly (Drosophila) proved that inheritable variations could be traced to observable changes in the chromosomes. These experiments resulted in the construction of gene maps."
