A cross is performed between a pure-breeding pea plant with round and yellow seeds and a pure-breeding pea plant with wrinkled and green seeds. All F1 progeny have round and yellow seeds. The F1 plants are self-crossed. The following results are observed in the resultant F2 generation: 65 round and yellow, 42 round and green, 50 wrinkled and yellow, and 45 wrinkled and green. Use a Chi Square analysis to determine whether these traits follow Mendel’s law of independent assortment.

Inheritance and Mendelian Genetics

Inheritance means the passing of traits to offspring from parents. These traits could be passed either through asexual reproduction or sexual reproduction. The offspring receives the genetic material from the parents. Mendelian inheritance is a certain biological inheritance that follows the rules and principles laid down by Gregor Mendel in 1865. The initial hypothesis was considered wrong, but other inheritance theories modified the concept of inheritance and thus genetics.
