G. Lakshmi · Accepted Answer

In his famous experiment, August Weismann cut off the tails of
mice for 22 generations, and he disproved the theory that acquired
characteristics could be inherited
He proposed the germ plasm theory This theory explained the body
(Somatoplasm) lives for only one generation But the hereditary
material (Germ plasm) is immortal, and it can be passed from
generation to generation without change
That is why, even after 22 generations the rat exists with
tails
