13. Based on Mendel’s postulate of independent assortment, if 1/4 of the F2 generation is expected to be tall plants and 1/4 are expected to beyellow, what is the probability of a plant being short and yellow?[Hint: Apply the product law.]If the expected frequency of tall plants is 3/4, then the frequency of dwarf plants should be 1/4. If the expected frequency of green plantsis 1/4, then the frequency of yellow plants should be 3/4. Applying the product law indicates that the frequency of dwarf, yellow plantsshould be (1/4)(3/4) = 3/16.
