Solution

The correct option is C Law of independent assortment

When a cross is made between two individuals different from each other in two or more characters, then the inheritance of one character is independent of the inheritance of another character. It is called Law of independent assortment. This is correct if the genes are present on two different chromosomes. But if the genes are present on the same chromosomes, they may or may not show independent assortment, i.e. Linkage. Because of this reason, Law of independent assortment is not completely applicable.

So, the correct option is ‘Law of Independent assortment’.
