|
|
alleles separate during gamete formation so that each gamete only carries one allele
|
|
|
alleles separate during gamete formation so that each gamete carries on dominant or only recessive alleles sets
|
|
|
alleles separate based on the sex of the organism. Males will carry recessive alleles and females will care dominant alleles
|
|
|
alleles cannot separate ever

Detailed explanation-1: -Mendel’s law of segregation states that: “During the formation of gamete, each gene separates from each other so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene.” Law of segregation is the second law of inheritance.
Detailed explanation-2: -Genes come in different versions, or alleles. A dominant allele hides a recessive allele and determines the organism’s appearance. When an organism makes gametes, each gamete receives just one gene copy, which is selected randomly. This is known as the law of segregation.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Principle of Segregation describes how pairs of gene variants are separated into reproductive cells. The segregation of gene variants, called alleles, and their corresponding traits was first observed by Gregor Mendel in 1865. Mendel was studying genetics by performing mating crosses in pea plants.
Detailed explanation-4: -Gregor Mendel‘s law of segregation states that the two alleles separate or separate for each trait during gamete formation, and that alleles randomly combine with other alleles during the formation of new zygotes.
Detailed explanation-5: -Law of dominance: A dominant gene will express itself over the recessive gene. 2. Law of segregation: Parental genes are randomly separated to the germ cells such that each germ cell receives only one gene from each pair. 3.
