Expert Solution

Step 1

Genetics is the study of the genetic and diversity particularities, which are the core features of living organisms.
Gregor Mendel is the father of Genetics who proposed three laws namely, Law of Independent Assortment, Law of Dominance, and Law of Segregation.
Via experiments on pea plants with a variety of characteristics, these laws came into being.
Alleles are called gene variants that occur by mutation and exist at the same relative locations on homologous chromosomes.
Mendel studied gene inheritance with only two types of alleles, but it is normal for a natural population to experience more than two alleles for any given gene.
