how do mendel's experiment show that the traits are inherited independently explain
Answers
When Mendel crossed between a tall pea plant and a short pea plant, he noticed that in the F1 generation all tall plant had yielded. If the traits had been mixed them a medium sized plant would have yielded. Moreover the dwarfness trait reappeared in the F2 generation
Hence he showed that traits were inherited independently
Mendel's cross bred pea plants showed two different characteristics. In the experiment, he took two different traits, like tall and short plant, and round and wrinkled seeds. In the 2nd generation, some plants were tall with wrinkled seeds. There would also be short plants having round seeds. Thus the tall or short plants and the round and wrinkled seed traits are independently inherited.
