Mendel proposed the law of independent assortment on the basis of __________.
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. dihybrid crosses.
- Gregor Mendel proposed the Law of Independent Assortment based on his experiments with dihybrid crosses.
- In these experiments, Mendel crossed pea plants that differed in two traits (such as seed shape and seed color) and observed how these traits were inherited in the offspring.
- He found that the inheritance of one trait (e.g., seed shape) was independent of the inheritance of the other trait (e.g., seed color).
