Independent Assortment is the second law of inheritance Traits are passed from parents to offspring independently of one another. Independent assortment is random and occurs during Metaphase I of meiosis.  There are two possible alignments for the chromosomes.  Since the alignments are random and not assigned, genetic variation occurs.

Independent grouping of qualities happens amid meiosis in eukaryotes. Meiosis could be a sort of cell division that diminishes the number of chromosomes in a parent cell by half to deliver four regenerative cells called gametes. In people, diploid cells contain 46 chromosomes, with 23 chromosomes acquired from the mother and a moment comparative set of 23 chromosomes acquired from the father. Sets of comparable chromosomes are called homologous chromosomes. Amid meiosis, the sets of homologous chromosome are separated in half to make haploid cells, and this partition, or grouping, of homologous chromosomes is arbitrary. This implies that all of the maternal chromosomes will not be isolated into one cell, whereas the all fatherly chromosomes are isolated into another. Instep, after meiosis happens, each haploid cell contains a blend of qualities from the organism's mother and father.

In humans, the eye color and hair color genes are located on different chromosomes. Brown eyes (B) are dominant to blue (b), and
Andrej [43]

Answer:

Man's genotype: Bbdd

Woman's genotype: bbDd

First child's genotype: Bbdd

Second child's genotype: bbDd

Explanation:

This is a dihybrid cross involving two genes; one coding for eye color and the other for hair color in humans. The allele for brown eye (B) is dominant over the allele for blue eyes (b) in the first gene while the allele for dark hair (D) is dominant over the allele for red hair (d) in the second gene.

According to the question, A man with brown eyes and red hair will possibly possess genotypes: BBdd or Bbdd while a woman with blue eyes and dark hair will possibly have genotype: bbDD or bbDd. Considering the fact that they produced children with recessive traits for both gene (blue eyes and red hair), it means that they are heterozygous for their dominant trait. This means that the ideal genotype for the man is Bbdd since he will produce gametes containing B and b alleles for the first gene while the ideal genotype for the woman is bbDd since it will produce gametes with D and d allele for the second gene.

Hence, a child with brown eyes and red hair will possess genotype: Bbdd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles for the first gene from both parents. A child with blue eyes and dark hair will have genotype: bbDd since he/she cannot receive two dominant alleles of the second gene from both parents.

notka56 [123]

Answer: Eye drops are effective when it placed into the eyes with care and proper instructions.

Eye drops should be placed in the lower conjunctival sac that starts at the inner side of the eye not the outer side called as canthus.

If the eye drops are dropeed on the cornea of the eyes and this causes discomfort and hence should be avoided.

It should not be placed on the opening of the lacrimal ducts otherwise it will avoid the systemic absorption.

A man with type A blood marries a woman with type B. Their offspring all have type AB blood. The pattern of
Anna11 [10]

Answer: Codominance

Explanation:

Since neither type A blood nor type B is dominant over the other (i.e both are codominant), the offspring of both parents will be with type AB blood.

Thus, codominance explains how the two alleles are present in the Heterozygous individual IAIB, showing they are both fully expressed.
