उत्तर
Salient features of the chromosomal theory of inheritance:
- Somatic cells of organisms are derived from the zygote by repeated cell division (mitosis). These consist of two identical sets of chromosomes. One set is received from a female parent (maternal) and the other from a male parent (paternal). These two chromosomes constitute the homologous pair.
- Chromosomes retain their structural uniqueness and individuality throughout the life cycle of an organism.
- Each chromosome carries specific determiners or Mendelian factors which are now termed as genes.
- The behavior of chromosomes during the gamete formation (meiosis) provides evidence to the fact that genes or factors are located on chromosomes.
