The answer is A) the random and independent way in which each pair of homologous chromosomes lines up at the metaphase plate during meiosis I. 

The law of independent assortment is the second Mendel's law. In independent assortment the alleles for different traits are passed independently to the offspring. It occurs during meiosis I. When in metaphase of meiosis I the chromosomes line up, mother's chromosomes can be on one side, and father's chromosomes on the other side of the equator or they can be mixed in a number of ways.

Inga [223]

Answer:

I would write "terrestrial/lives on land during all life stages" between the frog and pigeon branches.

Explanation:

Jaw evolution has started with fish, so i'd place that before the perch, evolution of four limbs is next and I would plate it between the perch and the frog. Evolution of an egg has ensured that organisms remain terrestrial during all stages of life and don't need to rely on water to lay their eggs. So I would place that between the frog and the pigeon. True mammary glands and true hair, as we know it formed on mammals so i'd place that between the pigeon and the rats (although synapsids evolved similar structures long before birds even existed). And lastly, I would place "walking on two legs" between rats and human branches. Because our ancestors evolved bipedalism relatively late.
