Which of the following about the law of segregation is true?

(1) It states that each of two alleles for a given trait segregate into same gametes.

(2) It can be explained by the segregation of heterologous chromosomes during meiosis.

(3) It can account for the 3:1 ratio seen in the F2 generation of Mendelʹs crosses.

(4) It is a method that can be used to determine the number of chromosomes in a plant.
