it states that the alleles of a given locus segregate into separate gametes.

each character is controlled by distinct units called factors, which occur in pairs.

states that recessive traits are always dominated or masked by the dominant trait. This law can be described by Mendel’s experiment.

A gene exists in more than one form of an allele.

When gametes are produced by meiosis, the allelic pairs separate, leaving each gamete with a single allele.

The trait which is expressed in the phenotype is called the dominant trait while the one that is not is called the recessive trait.

Every organism inherits two alleles for each trait.

is a scoring of the type of variant present at a given location (i.e. a locus) in the genome.

it refers to an individual’s observable traits, such as height, eye color and blood type.

genetic variation is maintained and how traits are passed from generation to generation.

inherit two alleles for each trait, one from each parent.

refers to an individual’s observable traits, such as height, eye color and blood type.

each gene segregate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.

“In this law, each character is controlled by distinct units called factors, which occur in pairs. If the pairs are heterozygous, one will always dominate the other.”

“These laws came into existence by the experiments on pea plants in a variety of differing traits.”

“When parents with pure, contrasting traits are crossed together, only one form of trait appears in the next generation. The hybrid offsprings will exhibit only the dominant trait in the phenotype.”

“During the formation of gamete, each gene separates from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.”

the pair of alleles segregate from each other during meiosis cell division (gamete formation) so that only one allele will be present in each gamete.

A person’s phenotype is determined by both their genomic makeup (genotype) and environmental factors.
