In a monohybrid cross between tall pea plants (TT) and short pea plants (tt), a scientist obtained only tall pea plants (Tt) in the F1 generation. However, on selfing the F1 generation pea plants, he obtained both tall and short plants in F2 generation. On the basis of above observations with other angiosperms also, can the scientist arrive at a law? If yes, explain the law. If not, give justification for your answer.
Selfing of F1 produces 3 tall : 1 dwarf plants in F2 generation.

It explains “law of dominance” and “Law of independent Assortment” proposed by Mendel.
