Learn Mendel’s Law of Segregation with Example and see how genetic principles shape heredity and understand why it is known as purity of gametes. While our focus is on the Law of Dominance and the Law of Segregation , it's worth briefly mentioning Mendel’s third law—the Law of Independent Assortment. This law states that alleles for different traits segregate independently during the formation of gametes, leading to genetic variation. The Law of Dominance, Law of Segregation and Law of Independent Assortment are the three Mendel’s laws of inheritance. These laws came into existence by the experiments on pea plants in a variety of differing traits. Mendel started his research with monohybrid cross. Learn how Mendel's law of segregation explains how alleles separate during gamete formation. See how Mendel used pea plants to test this law and how it applies to modern genetics.
