law of segregation by Gregor Mendel tells us that.... a parent has 2 pairs of alleles, and when a gamete is being formed, the pairs of alleles segregate [ separate ] from each other, so that the gamete receives only 1 pair... and this is random... so it has 50% chance for 1 pair and 50% chance for the other pair...

The statement of the law is as follows:- Allele pairs separate or segregate during gamete formation, and randomly unite during fertilization.
