Chiasma form during meiosis I but not during mitosis. a. True b. False

Biology
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Chiasma is the site of crossing over. It is an X-shaped site that appears in a tetrad (bivalent) chromosome during the diplotene stage of prophase I of meiosis I. Crossing over refers to the exchange of segments of chromatids and occurs between homologous chromosomes only. Crossing over is the event of prophase I of meiosis I and produce new gene combinations.

The homologous chromosomes are separated from each other but remain attached at chiasmata. The dissolution of chiasmata occurs by the end of prophase I and separates the homologous chromosomes completely from each other. Crossing over does not occur in mitosis. Since mitosis does not include crossing over, chiasmata are also not formed in mitosis.

Which of the following observations did Mendel make as a result of his experiments with dihybrid crosses?
Vinvika [58]

The correct answer is: B) Different traits are inherited separately.

Mendel’s conclusions as a result of his experiments with dihybrid crosses are known as Mendel’s laws.

• Mendel’s law of Segregation: During the gametes formation (meiosis), alleles are separated so that each gamete carries only one allele for each gene

• Mendel’s law of Independent Assortment: The segregation of alleles of one gene is independent to that of any other gene

Mendel also defined the Principle of Dominance: Recessive alleles will be masked by dominant alleles when are together in heterozygous genotype.
