When Mendel studied 7 traits for pea plants 6 of the traits were on different chromosomes, and 2 were separated by a great distance on one chromosome. If he selected 2 traits controlled by linked genes in his initial studies, which law would be affected, his first or second law? Explain your choice.

Several of the traits examined by Mendel in his dihybrid crosses are now known to be encoded by genes that occur on the same chromosome. Given the outcome of his experiments, what can you infer about the distance between these genes? How would his results have been different if the traits examined had included plant height and pod shape, which are encoded by genes that are very close together on the same chromosome? Use the following terms in your response: alleles; loci; recombination; expected ratio.
