Which statement summarizes the law of segregation? gametes are passed in pairs, groups, or sets. traits that are dominant mask traits that are recessive. gametes carry one allele for each trait. traits are passed independently of one another.

The correct answer is - Gametes carry one allele for each trait.

Law of segregation was given was given by Gregor Mendel. According to this law, alleles ( different forms of a gene) are separated from one another during gamete formation and each gamete receives one allele. This is also called law of purity of gametes.

Thus, gametes carry one allele for each trait is the right answer that summarizes the law of segregation.
