Consider the following statements regarding Mendel's Law of Segregation: 1. The Law of Segregation states that allele pairs separate during gamete formation and randomly unite at fertilization. 2. This law is also known as the law of purity of gametes because a gamete carries only one allele for each gene. 3. The segregation of alleles is a post-meiotic event that occurs during the formation of diploid zygotes. Which of the statements given above is/are correct?

Options:

• A: 1 and 2 only
• B: 2 and 3 only
• C: 1 and 3 only
• D: 1, 2 and 3
