Answer:

Gene pairs segregate randomly and independently of each other.

Explanation:

Genes are the basic units of hereditary and are located on chromosomes. According to Gregor Mendel's law of independent assortment  which states that the alleles of two (or more) different genes are sorted into gametes independently of one another. This means that the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele the same gamete receives for another gene.

Answer:

photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
