Mendel's law of segregation states that

A. genes are segregated independently of each other.
B. traits tend to segregate, with multiple recessive traits often showing up in the same offspring.
C. if a parent has a dominant allele, its offspring will exhibit the dominant trait only.

Final answer:

Mendel's law of segregation explains how genes segregate during gamete formation, ensuring offspring receive one allele for each trait.


Explanation:

Mendel's law of segregation states that each individual has a pair of alleles for a particular trait, and each parent passes one allele at random to their offspring, resulting in offspring with an equal likelihood of inheriting either allele. The law explains how genes separate or segregate during gamete formation, leading to offspring receiving only one allele for each trait.
