Question

this botanist used the same logic to reach her conclusions as mendel used in his experiments.
part c - relationship with mendel’s findings
suppose that the botanist carried out the test cross described in parts a and b and determined that the original green-pod plant was heterozygous (gg). which of mendel’s findings does her test cross illustrate?
view available hint(s)
chromosome theory of inheritance
law of segregation
law of independent assortment
linkage

Explanation:

The question is about Mendel's laws and genetic concepts. The law of segregation states that during gamete formation, the two alleles for a trait separate. A test cross with a heterozygous individual (Gg) would illustrate this law as the alleles segregate into gametes (G and g), which is consistent with the law of segregation. Chromosome theory of inheritance relates to chromosomes carrying genes, independent assortment is about different traits assorting independently (not relevant here as it's a single trait), and linkage is about genes on the same chromosome (not applicable here).

Answer:

law of segregation
