which law is this?

• organism recieves half of its total number of alleles from each parent

law of segregation

which law is this?

• traits are passed on randomly and are not influenced by other types of traits

law of independence

what is mendels law of independence

traits are passed on randomly and are not influenced by other types of traits

which law is this?

• what is mendels law of dominance

when two different alleles are present in a pair the dominant one is the one that is expressed

which non mendelian law is this?

• expression of both alleles so both traits are shown

• white dog with black spots

codominance

what is the non -mendelian law of codominance?

expression of both alleles so both traits are shown

which non-mendelian law is this?

• dominant and recessive are expressed resulting in phenotype that mixes the two

• red + white = pink

incomplete dominance

describe the non-mendelian law of incomplete dominance

dominant and recessive are expressed resulting in phenotype that mixes the two

which non-mendelian law is this?

• traits influence dby more than one gene
