Question

When alleles move into different gametes, this demonstrates:

Options

• dominance

• segregation

• crossing over

• independent assortment

Answer 1

segregation

Explanation:

When alleles move into different gametes during gamete formation, this process demonstrates the Law of Segregation. According to Mendel's Law of Segregation, each pair of alleles separates (segregates) during the formation of gametes (egg and sperm), so that each gamete receives only one allele from the pair. Thus, a gamete can carry either one allele or the other, but not both.
