Independent assortment explains _______. View Available Hint(s) Independent assortment explains _______. why meiosis in a cell o
f genotype Aa yields A gametes and a gametes in roughly equal numbers why meiosis in a cell of genotype AaBb cannot yield Ab gametes why meiosis in a cell of genotype Aa yields A gametes and a gametes, but no Aa gametes why a collection of meiotic products that includes gametes of genotype Ab will also include gametes of genotype AB in roughly the same proportion
1. The law of Independent assortment say that the formation of combinations of chromosomes in meiosis is random, which says that each pair of homologous chromosomes are independently separated.
2. No pair of chromosome is dependent on another pair of chromosomes.
3. In independent assortment, the cell containing allele AaBb produce equal amount of gametes AB, Ab, aB, and ab.
Gametes are the genetically different kind of cells which are produced as a result of meiosis. Meiosis is a reductional division in which the chromosomes are reduced to half. Genetic variation in the gametes is due to crossing over between two non-sister chromatids of a homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
