A monohybrid cross looks at only one trait.3. A dihybrid cross looks at two traits at a time.4. The blending hypothesis of inheritance states that genes of parents can be mixed in the offspring.5. The particulate hypothesis of inheritance states that parents pass on to their offspring separate and distinct factors (today called genes) that are responsible for inherited traits.
