When Gregor Mendel was working in the mid 1800s, scientists had not yet discovered chromosomes or meiosis. However, we now understand how Mendel's principles are rooted in the events of meiosis. As an example of this, state Mendel's principle of independent assortment and explain how it relates to independent assortment in meiosis.
A woman with fair skin, blond hair, and blue eyes gives birth to fraternal twins; the father has dark brown skin, dark hair, and brown eyes. One twin has blond hair, brown eyes, and light skin, and the other has dark hair, brown eyes, and dark skin. What Mendelian law does this real-life case illustrate and explain what this means in terms of the inherited alleles for these genes?
How did Mendel use evidence from monohybrid and dihybrid crosses to deduce his laws of segregation and independent assortment? How do these laws relate to meiosis?
Why did Mendel perform "reciprocal crosses"? Someone gives you a bag of yellow peas and you plant them in the Spring. Can you predict the color of the peas that will appear in the pods on the plants grown from these peas? Would your answer be different if you had received a bag of green peas? Explain what Mendel means when he writes that the 3:1 ratio observed in the first generation from the hybrids "resolves itself" into a ratio of 2:1:1
What is the difference between Mendels' las of segregation and indepedne assortment?
In pea plants, smooth peas is dominant to wrinkled peas. When Mendel crossed true breeding smooth peas with true breeding wrinkled peas, what is the genotype of the offspring and what percentage?
Mendel describes subjecting each of the 34 varieties of peas he obtained to a two-year trial. During this time he let the plants self-fertilize and observed their offspring. What was he looking for, and what was the purpose of doing this two-year trial? Why did Mendel perform "reciprocal crosses"? Someone gives you a bag of yellow peas and you plant them in the Spring.

Assume that genes A and B are on two different chromosomes. Describe Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment by using an individual with the genotype AaBb as an example.
Mendel crossed a true-breeding pea plant with green pods and a true-breeding pea plant with yellow pods. All the F1 plants had green pods. Which color is recessive?
The outcome of Mendel’s law of independent assortment is dependent on how chromosomes are arranged at which phase?
