Tall or short and round or wrinkled seeds in peas are inherited:

AInvariably
BIndependently
CInseparably
DIdentically
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. Independently
1. Crossing tall round-seeded plants with short wrinkled-seeded ones gives new combinations in F2. 2. Some F2 plants are tall with wrinkled seeds and some short with round seeds. 3. So the two traits are independently inherited. _Source: syllabus Science, Ch 9 'Heredity and Evolution'_
