Question

During gamete formation, the alleles for each gene separate from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene. This is called:

Mendel's law of segregation

Mendel's law of dominance

Mendel's law of independent assortment

Mendel's law of meiosis

Answer 1

Mendel's law of segregation

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer: Mendel's law of independent assortment

Step-by-step explanation:

Mendel's 2nd law of inheritance is also known as law of independent assortment of genes.

It states that each character behaves as a SEPARATE unit and is inherited INDEPENDENTLY of any other character.

Therefore, the SEPARATION of alleles from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele PERFECTLY explains Mendel's law of independent assortment
