What is the tallness trait of a pea plant moving separately from the color trait an example of?

Answer:

This is an example of Mendel's second law, the Law of Independent Assortment, which states that the appearance of one trait will not affect the appearance of another. Current understanding of genetic inheritance, however, has shown that this is not always the case because two genes, which are located close to each other on the same chromosome, will most likely be inherited together.
