A seed has alleles for color (yellow or green) and shape (round or wrinkled). How did Mendel's law of independent assortment describe how these traits were passed from parents to offspring. Check all that apply.

Mendel’s law of independent assortment says that alleles for different traits, such as color and shape, are passed into gametes independently of one another. So inheriting an allele for yellow or green does not determine whether the offspring inherits an allele for round or wrinkled; the alleles are not combined before being passed on.
