In what ways are human genetics similar to fruit fly or pea plant genetics

Fruit flies and pea plants may seem boring and simple, but the basic principles of genetics were worked out using those organisms. Humans follow the same patterns of heredity. First, meiosis independently assorts chromosomes when gametes are made for sexual reproduction. Second, human heredity involves the same relationships between alleles-dominant and recessive interactions, polygenic traits, and sex-linked genes, among others.
