In Mendelian Inheritance:
I: Some alleles are dominant while others are recessive; an organism with at least one dominant allele will display the effect of the dominant allele.
II: During gamete formation, the alleles for each gene segregate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.
III: Genes of different traits can segregate independently during the formation of gametes.

That the pairing and separation of a pair of chromosomes would lead to the segregation of a pair of factors they carried is the argument that formed the basis for:
1. the Law of Independent Assortment.
2. the concept of Linkage
3. the chromosomal theory of inheritance.
4. the One Gene One Enzyme hypothesis.
