Students conducted experiments to research inheritance patterns in pea plants. their results showed that the inheritance pattern of one trait does not affect the inheritance pattern of another. which scientific idea is best supported by the students' experiment? a. monohybrid crosses b. law of segregation c. separation of chromosome pairs d. law of independent assortment

Hi!

The answer would be D - Law of Independent Assortment.

This is a law of inheritance put forth by Mendel in which he establishes that genes for different traits are passed onto the offspring independent of one another, meaning that the manner of inheritance for a particular trait does not influence the manner of inheritance for the other trait.

Hope this helps!

they float because they are less dense than the water itself

something denser than water, like a rock, will sink to the bottom
