Mendel's law of segregation states that alleles separate during gamete - formation, meaning traits are passed on individually. The principle of dominance refers to one allele masking another. The law of independent assortment is about the independent inheritance of different gene pairs. There is no "principle of genetics" among Mendel's specific laws.

C. the law of segregation
