Mendel discovered that some alleles are always expressed when present, whereas others can hide or not be expressed. This is known as the law of ...
Independent Assortment
Dominance
Segregation
Hide and go seek
Mendel discovered that when an individual is heterozygous for a trait, both the dominant and the recessive allele have an equal chance of being passed to their offspring. This is known as the law of...
Segregation
Independent Assortment
Dominance
Mendel discovered that the inheritance of an allele for one gene does not always impact the inheritance of the allele for another gene. In other words, hair color alleles do not influence eye color alleles. This is known as the law of...
