In all of Mendel's experiments, the two alleles causing a trait were:

An organism with two identical alleles for a given trait is:

Assertion :- The segregation of alleles in a random process and so there is a 50% chance of a gamete containing either allele. Reason :- By the process of mitosis, the alleles of the parental pair separtes from each other & only one allele in transmitted to a gamete.

Assertion : Starch synthesis in pea seeds is controlled by one gene. Reason: This gene has two alleles (B and b)

Assertion : A gamete may carry either of the traits but not both. Reason : This is Mendel's second law or law of independent assortment.
