Mendel is considered the Father of Genetics. His famous pea plant experiments helped to formulate several laws in genetics that have stood the test of time with very little modification. Match each law or term with the correct description/definition.
The two members of a gene pair (alleles) separate from each other in the formation of gametes. Half the gametes carry one allele, and the other half carry the other allele.
Genes for different traits assort independently of one another in the formation of gametes.
This law states an organism has two different alleles for a trait and the allele that is expressed in the phenotype, masking the expression of the other allele is said to be dominant.
This is a form of a gene that is hidden by another, dominant, form of the same gene.
A cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype in which both of the parental traits appear together. Blood type AB.
This is a trait that is a blend of the dominant and recessive gene: tall X short = medium height match it with law of segregation, law of dominance, recessive allele, co-dominance, incomplete dominance, law od independent assortment

- The two members of a gene pair (alleles) separate... Half the gametes carry one allele, and the other half carry the other allele. → Law of Segregation
- Genes for different traits assort independently of one another in the formation of gametes. → Law of Independent Assortment
- An organism has two different alleles for a trait and the allele that is expressed in the phenotype, masking the expression of the other allele, is said to be dominant. → Law of Dominance
- A form of a gene that is hidden by another, dominant, form of the same gene. → Recessive allele
- A cross between organisms with two different phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype in which both parental traits appear together (e.g., blood type AB). → Co-dominance
- A trait that is a blend of the two alleles (e.g., tall × short = medium height). → Incomplete Dominance
- Genes for different traits assort independently of one another in the formation of gametes. → Law of Independent Assortment
