Mendel's principle of segregation implies that the two members of an allelic pair of genes determines the characteristics of an organism but only one of a pair of such factors can be present in a single gamete.

This is called the law of segregation.

This was an important law given by Mendel.

This is a law based on heredity.

MENDEL'S EXPERIMENT :-

Gregor J. Mendel was German speaking by largest and the Catholic priest who showed great interest towards understanding inheritance and carried out an extensive Research and study on genetics.

He gained post humus Fame as the founder of new science of genetics and that he was name the father of genetics.

Mendel use pea plant for his experiment which are self pollinating even when they are alone.

He selected pea plant so that he could control and change their self pollination to cross pollination. He call them as parent generation/'P'.

'P' plants have a shorter growth period and they also showed a number of contrasting visible characters such as round/unwrinkled seeds, tall/short plants, white/violet flowers and so on.

Taking these pea plant for his experiment Mendel conceptualized two important experiments to explain the probability of transfer of characters from parents to their offsprings.

The experiments were :-

  1. The monohybrid experiment
  2. The dihybrid experiment

Mendel give two important laws based on the experiments he did :-

  1. The law of segregation
  2. The law of independent assortment

The law of segregation :-

The characteristics of an organisms are determined by inherited factors called alleles with occur in pairs but only one of a pair of such factors can be present in a single gamete.

The law of independent assortment :-

This law states that the alleles of different characteristics are passed on independently giving different traitss an equal opportunity of occurring together. In simple words, traits are transmitted independently of one another.

He used punnett square for determining the probability of an offspring having a particular genotype. The punnett square is a square diagram that is used to predict the genotypes of a particular cross or breathing experiment.
