Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Law of independent assortment is one of the three laws given by Mendel concludes that the traits do not influence other trait which is received from another gene.

Two alleles of the two or more different gene gets sorted into gametes and is independent.

There is no relationship in the traits and its passing on. The traits whether passed on or not are affected by each other.
