Question

"explain how the events of meiosis account for the law of segregation and the law of independent assortment"

Answer 1

Answer: In Meiosis,chromosomes in a diploid cell resegregate, to give four haploid cells. Genetic diversity takes place during this early step of meiosis. DNA replication takes place before Early Meiosis commence. Pairing of homologous chromosomes which forms synapses is unique to Meiosis.

Explanation: Meiosis is a type of cell division which aides the formation of reproductive materials like the GAMETES SUCH AS SPERM CELLS AND EGGS,During Meiosis cell division takes place which reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four daughter cells, Meiosis is essential to guarantee genetic diversity in living organisms.
