The correct answer is:

The law of independent assortment

Explanation;

The Principle of Independent Assortment illustrates how different genes individually separate from one another when reproductive cells receive. Independent assortment of genes and their similar traits was first mentioned by Gregor Mendel in 1865 during his studies of genetics in pea plants. Declaring that when two or more characters are acquired, individual hereditary factors classify independently during gamete production, giving distinct traits an equal opportunity of befalling together.

Explain how environmental contaminants make their way into and through the food chain.
julsineya [31]
Environmental contaminants make their way into lakes, rivers, and groundwater and many other places. Animals drink that water. Our crops absorb that water that seeps into the soil, those crops are consumed by animals and humans. Therefore those animals are contaminated with whatever contaminant they consumed. In return those animals are ingested by the predator that consumes it therefore passing through the food chain.
