Solution

Mendel's law of independent assortment:
The law of independent assortment states that the alleles of different genes are inherited independently within the organisms that reproduce sexually.
According to the law, the alleles of two or more genes get divided into gametes and are independent of each other.
The allele received for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene.
