Question
Mendel’s idea that the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele from each parent is passed to an offspring is explained by:
- Law of dominance
- Law of segregation
- Law of independent assortment
- Hybridization
Hint:
Law of segregation explains that the pair of alleles of each parent separate and only one allele from each parent is passed to an offspring.
The correct answer is: Law of segregation
- During gamete formation only half of the chromosomes pass onto each daughter cell.
- Similarly only one of the two alleles from a pair of alleles is transferred to a gamete.
- This is called the law of segregation which is the second law of inheritance.
