1 answer
The correct response due to Mendel's law of segregation is:
C: alleles belonging to the same gene will never end up in the same gamete during meiosis.
Mendel's law of segregation states that during the formation of gametes (through meiosis), the two alleles for a given gene segregate from each other, so that each gamete carries only one allele of each gene.
