Answer:

chromosome theory of inheritance

Explanation: Mendel second law of independent assortment of gene says that

Members of different chromosome should assort independently during meiosis to form gametes. For a sex linked gene it doesn't assort the gene is linked with the individual gametes such that its is transferred to the next generation or offspring produced. It is not affected by recombination or segregation. Example is white eye in drosophilla
