2) the genes for red hair and freckles are usually inherited together because these genes are:

A. In incomplete dominance red and white makes pink.





C. Linked genes are usually inherited together because they are on the same chromosome.





Independent assortment says that the way one pair of genes separates into the gametes does not affect the way another pair of genes separates. This really only works when genes are not linked: when they are not on the same chromosome.
