What are Mendel’s laws of inheritance?


Mendel's Laws of inheritance are-:
i. Law of dominance: When two homozygous individuals with one or more sets of contrasting characters are crossed the characters that appear in the F1 hybrids are dominant characters.

ii. Law of segregation: Contrasting characters brought together in a hybrid remain together without being contaminated and when gametes are formed from the hybrid the two separate  from each other and only one enters each gamete.

iii. Law of independent assortment: In inheritance of more than one pair of contrasting characters simultaneously, the factors for each pair of characters assort independently of other pairs.
