The second law is independent assortment which states during gamete formation each pair of the allele will segregate independently of the rest of the pairs of the chromosomes. The third law is the law of dominance which is that alleles can be dominant or recessive with the expression of the dominant trait when a minimum of one dominant allele is present. Mendel…

    Since the dawn of cognitive thought, human civilizations have sought to understand the inheritance of certain physical traits from parents to their offspring. The limited knowledge of the true mechanism of inheritance remained elusive for many generations. The role of inheritance was clear, as seen with selective breeding of livestock and plant life. This could be seen by, breeding two parental types that had specific desirable traits and getting the desired results in offspring, most of the…
