Hi JOJO,

Remember, Mendel's Law of Segregation states that allele pairs separate during gamete formation, and randomly unite at fertilization.

He didn't know anything about genes at the time (DNA discovery did not happen till the early-1950's). I would choose C.

What textbook are these questions coming from?
