To verify mendel's law of independent assortment 12th bio practical

To verify mendel's law of  independent assortment 12th bio practical The following steps are to be followed sequentially:
(i) Place 64 beads of each colour in four separate beakers.
(ii) Put the beakers containing the yellow and red beads on your left side,
and those containing the green and white beads on your right side.
The beakers on your left side represent plants bearing yellow seed and
red flower (dominant character YY, RR). Beakers on the right side
represent plants bearing green seeds and white flowers (recessive
character yy, rr). These are the two parental types having contrasting
forms of two different characters.
(iii) Stir the beads in each beaker with a pencil/pen. Each bead now
represents alleles in the male and female gametes.
(iv) Pick up one yellow, one green, one red and one white bead, and put
them together on the napkin spread on the table.
(v) Continue picking up and putting together of the beads of all colours
as mentioned in the previous step, till all the beads are utilised.
(vi) Note that in all, 64 such 4-bead clusters are obtained representing the
F1 individuals. Ascertain their genotype and phenotype.
(vii) Next step is to cross these F1 individuals to raise the F2 generation. Let
us suppose half of the 4-bead clusters (32 clusters) represent the male
parents and the remaining half (32 clusters) the female parents. Now
put the 32 red and 32 white beads together in one beaker (numbered￾I), and similarly put 32 yellow and 32 green beads together in other
beaker (numbered-II). These two beakers represent F1 female. Similarly
put remaining 32 red + 32 white beads in beaker numbered-III, and
32 yellow and 32 green one in beaker numbered-IV to represent the F1
male. The arrangement can be presented as below
(viii) Stir the beads in each beaker with a pencil. In order to raise the F2
generation, pick up (with eyes closed) one bead from the beaker-I of
female and one bead from the beaker-III of the male, and put into the
palm of the partner student. Similarly, pick up one bead each from the
beaker-II of female and beaker IV of male to put in the palm of the
partner. This partner would now keep all the four beads together (to
represent the F2 individual). Continue this process till all beads are
utilised. At the end, 64 F2 individuals (each represented by a 4-bead
cluster) are obtained.
(ix) Determine the genotype and phenotype of each of the 64 F2 individuals
and write down the number of individuals of different genotypes and
phenotypes in the tabular form (given below), remembering that Y
(yellow seed colour) is dominant over y (green seed) and R (red flower)
is dominant over r (white flower)
