During Meiosis, the alleles on each gene will separate individually into the gametes. This means that no matter what alleles were paired together in the parent, each gamete receives one allele. Mendel stated this to be the Law of **

Question

a
Gene Assortment
b
Independent Segregation
c
Independent Assortment
d
Gene Regulation

Answer 1

The correct answer is c. Independent Assortment.

Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment states that alleles for different genes segregate independently of one another during gamete formation. This means that the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene.
