Question

How have Mendel's experiments shown that traits are inherited independently ?? ​

genes located on different chromosomes will be inherited independently of each other.

Mendel crossed two pea plants differing in contrasting traits of two characters i.e a dihybrid cross.

He crossed a pea plant having yellow coloured and rounded seeds with another pea plant having green coloured and wrinkled seed.

The F¹ generation has all round and yellow seeds.

The F² generation, all the characters inherited independently. (round yellow, round green, wrinkled yellow, wrinkled green.
