The smallest 3D volume of a soil needed to give full representation of horizontal variability of soil is termed as _______. (IFFCO 2022)

✅Explanation:
Mendel's Law of Segregation is a fundamental principle of genetics. It states that during the formation of gametes (sex cells), the two alleles for a specific trait separate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene. This ensures genetic variation in offspring.
🔑Key Points: 
The Law of Segregation: This law states that each diploid organism possesses two alleles encoding a trait. These alleles segregate from each other, or separate, during the formation of gametes (like sperm or eggs), so each gamete only carries one allele for each trait. In other words, offspring inherit one genetic allele from each parent.
The Law of Independent Assortment: This law further explains the process of inheritance by asserting that alleles for different genes assort, or distribute, independently of each other in the formation of gametes. This means the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene. This law applies in cases where genes reside on different chromosomes or far from each other on the same chromosome.
