which of the following are assumptions on which mendel’s models rely? more than one answer may be correct.

• gene products act independently.
• the environment affects all individuals with all phenotypes in the same way.
• each trait is specified by a single gene with two alternative alleles.
• each trait is affected by at least two alternative genes.
• each gene affects one trait.

Explanation:

Mendel's models assume traits are controlled by single genes with two alleles, gene products act independently, and each gene affects one trait. The environment is assumed not to alter phenotypic expression uniformly, and traits are not required to involve multiple genes.

Answer:

Gene products act independently., Each trait is specified by a single gene with two alternative alleles., Each gene affects one trait.
