By crossing purple and white pea plants, Mendel found the offspring were purple rather than mixed, indicating one color was dominant over the other.Mendel’s Law of Segregation states individuals possess two alleles and a parent passes only one allele to his/her offspring.Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment states the inheritance of one pair of factors ( genes ) is independent of the inheritance of the other pair.If the two alleles are identical, the individual is called homozygous for the trait; if the two alleles are different, the individual is called heterozygous.Mendel cross-bred dihybrids and found that traits were inherited independently of each other.
