Mendel's Laws

The three laws of Mendel related to the inheritance of alleles are the cornerstones of genetics. In the video, the three laws are listed, but examples are also provided for cases when they are not valid.

Mendel's Laws
1. Law of dominance and uniformity: Some alleles are dominant while others are recessive; an organism with at least one dominant allele will display the effect of the dominant allele.

2. Law of segregation: During gamete formation, the alleles for each gene segregate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.

3. Law of independent assortment: Genes of different traits can segregate independently during the formation of gametes.
