• Explain what a Test Cross is and how/why you
would use it:
• Explain Mendel’s Law of Segregation:
• Explain Mendel’s Law of Independent Assortment:
• What is the exception to Independent Assortment?
Answer for Previous Q
• Law of Segregation: the two alleles for a trait
segregate (separate) when gametes are formed
during meiosis
• Bb parent could contribute B or b to gamete
• Law of Independent Assortment: alleles of
different genes separate independently of one
another during gamete formation
• Note: genes must be located on different chromosomes or
far apart from each other on the same chromosome
(due to crossing over)
• Example: plant height isn’t affected by plant’s flower color
