Independent assortment involves the independent segregation of the alleles of two separate genes on separate chromosomes.

<h3>What is the Principle of independent assortment How is it related to the Principle of segregation?</h3>

Understanding the law of segregation is necessary before defining independent assortment. According to the law of segregation, individual gamete cells receive two distinct, independently sorted genes during meiosis. On the other side, the random separation of the maternal and paternal DNA allows for a greater variety of genes.

Independent assortment refers to the independent segregation of two different genes' alleles on two different chromosomes. As a result, to create the simplest model of independent assortment, at least 4 chromosomes must be represented as two homologous pairs. On the other hand, only the two chromosomes of one homologous pair need to be drawn because segregation takes into account the separation of the two copies of a single gene carried on a single type of chromosome.

9) Identify the FALSE statement regarding sensory receptor cells. A) A graded potential is referred to as a receptor potential.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

<u> C) Each type of sensory receptor responds only to the stimulus that defines the receptor</u>

<u></u>

Explanation:

Neurons,  specialized cells within the nervous system. These help with coordinated movement ad communication within the body through the transmission of electrical signals.

Sensory receptors are highly specialized neurons. These are able to detect various chemical and physical stimuli, and are classified by their ability to detect certain stimuli such as:

  • photoreceptors
  • mechanoreceptors
  • chemoreceptors
  • thermoreceptors

Sensory receptors respond to certain intensities of stimuli, instead of one specific stimulus. e.g. Mechanoreceptors within the skin can respond to pressure changes due to touch, but may also detect sound due to specific vibrations.
