Question

In meiosis, allele separation during _____ is the chromosomal basis of segregation. metaphase prophase telophase anaphase

Answer 1

Anaphase

Step-by-step explanation:

Gregor Mendel has established in his law of segregation that the alleles of gene separates into gametes during gamete formation (meiosis). Alleles are borne on chromosomes, which is the form in which genetic material is being transferred.

This separation that was talked about by Mendel occurs in the Anaphase stage of meiosis. In this stage, homologous chromosomes or sister chromatids are pulled apart by microtubules to opposite poles of the cell. This separation causes the alleles on each chromosome to separate before the cell splits into two.
