Mendel |
through his work on pea plants, discovered the fundamental laws of inheritance |

|
law of segregation |
during the production of gametes the two copies of each hereditary factor segregate so that offspring acquire one factor from each parent |
|
law of independent assortment |
stating that when two or more characteristics are inherited, individual hereditary factors assort independently during gamete production, giving different traits an equal opportunity of occurring together |
|
law of dominance |
states that one of the factors for a pair of inherited traits will be dominant and the other recessive, unless both factors are recessive |
