Homologous Chromosomes.
Hello there! Traits controlled by two or more genes are for example skin color and height.
Law of independent assortment
Two chromosomes in a pair that have genes that code for the same traits are called homologous chromosomes. These chromosomes are in the same locations or loci.
Genes for two different traits that are located next to each other on the same chromosome would most likely be inherited together.

Inherited traits.
Gregor Mendel took two different colored pea plants: one had traits for white plants and the other had traits for a red plant. When Mendel cross bred the two plants, a plant with traits for a pink plant grew. This is how Mendel contributed to the understanding of inherited traits.

Traits are another name for genes. These are located on various areas of chromosomes. During meiosis, the chromosomes which are duplicated, are formed into gametes (ova or sperm). Those two combine into a new individual with entirely different mixture of traits.
Through genetics, you have two alleles(different versions for a gene) for each gene, one from each parent
Genes for two different traits that are located next to each other on the same chromosome would most likely be inherited together.

The two chromosomes (two "X" shapes) that are in a pair are generally called "homologous chromosomes". A pair of "chromatids" make up the two arms of a single chromosome.
