| A cell that contains one member of each chromosome pair | Haploid |
| the statement that the members of each pair of alleles separate when gametes are formed is known as the law of? | Segregation |
| The principle that states that alleles of different genes separate independently of one another during gamete formation is the law of? | independent Assortment |
| If some of the offspring of a test cross have the recessive trait, then the genotype of the individual being tested is | Recessive |
| The plants that gregor mendel crossed to produce the F1 generation made up the | Parental generation |
| A cross involving two different traits | Dihybrid |
