NEET Botany Mendel's Laws Match the Following Question
Match Column-I with Column-II.
Column-I Column-II (a) Law of Segregation (i) Traits blend together (b) Law of Independent Assortment (ii) Factors are discrete units (c) Genes as alleles (iii) Characteristics are inherited independently (d) Blending Inheritance (iv) One allele is dominant
Choose the correct matching:
a-i, b-ii, c-iii, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-i, d-iv
a-ii, b-iii, c-iv, d-i
a-iv, b-iii, c-ii, d-i
Correct Answer
Detailed Explanation
Mendel's laws state that the Law of Segregation means that factors (or alleles) separate during gamete formation (a-iv), the Law of Independent Assortment indicates that alleles for different traits are inherited independently (b-iii), genes are indeed units that can exist in pairs known as alleles (c-ii), and blending inheritance suggests that traits blend rather than being discrete (d-i).
