Solution

The correct option is A Independent assortment of genes

In accordance with his experiments with pea plants, Mendel gave four principles of genetics. The law of independent assortment is one of those. It states that during gametogenesis, the alleles on chromosomes separate independently of the other. This ensures distinct phenotypes in the progeny that result from non-mixing of traits.

So, the correct answer is 'Independent assortment of genes'.
