How do Mendel's experiment show that traits are inherited independently?
Mendel explained through his experiments on pea plant that a trait is inherited independently.
1) Firstly, He crossed tall plants (TT) with dwarf plants (tt) then, the f, generation was formed in which plants were tall
2) Then he crossed F, generation plants with the same plants and it is observed that there were 3 tall plants and 1 dwarf plant i.e 3: 1
Thus, Mendel's experiment shows that tall/short traits are independently inherited
