Enzymes are (usually) specific to the substrates they bind to. Thus, each enzyme has one and only one substrate structure they can metabolize, so even substrates with similar structures cannot be broken down by an enzyme specific to one of them.

Mendel also wondered if the inheritance of one trait affected the inheritance
svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

A. dihybrid crosses

Explanation:

A dihybrid cross can be defined as a mating experiment between two lines/varieties/organisms that differ in two phenotypic traits. By using pea plants, Mendel performed dihybrid crosses in order to analyze the mode of inheritance of both phenotypic traits at the same time. From these mating experiments, Mendel observed that the inheritance factors (nowadays called genes) sorted independently from one another in the next generation, which is called the principle/law of Independent Assortment.
