Nothing it is totally random. All the alleles on a chromosome will travel together, but then may change between chromosomes when crossover occurs.

The process of allele segregation during gamete formation is determined by the random assortment of chromosomes during meiosis. Homologous pairs of chromosomes separate independently, and each resulting gamete randomly receives one copy of each chromosome. This random assortment leads to the random segregation of alleles, determining which allele of each pair goes into a gamete.

The number of times an allele occurs in a gene pool?

Think frequent. More of the allele in the populations gene pool and there is a change in the alleles frequency. Some goes for less of the allele.


How would crossover affect the rate of evolution?

In humans, independent assortment occurs during meiosis, when the 23 pairs of chromosomes divide into 46 individual chromosomes, and 1 chromosome from each of the 23 pairs goes on to form a gamete (haploid cell) which can then be fertilised to produce offspring. The assortment is "independent" because each of the 23 chromosomes that go on to form a gamete can be from either chromosome within a "pair" - ie the 23 pairs of chromosomes are not linked together in any way when it comes to meiosis. This means that a large number of combinations of genetic material is possible - introducing a random result in the gamete.

What is the independent segregation of genes in different chromosomes during gamete formation?

During Meiosis 1, each chromosome will line up alongside its homologous partner. For example in humans this means that there will be 23 homologous pairs lying side by side. The order in which they line up in is random, one pair will pass to each daughter cell, which pair goes into the daughter cell and with which one of any of the other pairs, depends on how the pairs are lined up in the parent cell. Since the pairs are lined up at random the combination of chromosomes that goes into the daughter cell at meiosis 1 is also random, this is called Independent segregation

A gamete contains how many allele?

There is only one allele for each trait that goes into a gamete. This happens after meiosis as well. This process allows for DNA to be the same over time as reproduction continues.


Which is the FALSE statement a Phenotype determines genotype b Combination of alleles are known as genotype c A gamete will only receive one allele or another from a pair?

A. Because it goes like this: Phenotype = Genotype + developement.


What law states that one alele from each gene pair goes to each sex cell?

True or false? Yes, that's true. Why? So that the offspring will get one gene from the mother and the father. How? Through a process called meiosis. It is similar to mitosis, but there's an extra step where the chromatids divide, not just the chromosomes.

If two vehicles pull up to stop across from each other what determines who goes first?

well it depend on who got their first if the person across on the left got their first then it goes first and if then person across the right hand side got their first then it goes. just depend who got their first.


How does the male gamete reach the female gamete in plants?

well its a multiple step process. first, the male gamete hasta whoo the female gamete. second, dinner is offered. if all goes well, there is an opportunity for third base. aka, the dirty. THey make sloppy druken love for roughly two minutes and then pass out on a street corner. the end.


How is the female gamete produced?

gametes are produced by a special kind of cell division called meiosis. Meiosis produces ova (eggs) in women and sperm in men. Gametes have half the normal number of chromosomes (haploid number) - 23 chromosomes in human egg or sperm cells. For just the female gamete, the egg cell goes through the process of 'Oogenesis', which produces one female gamete and three polar bodies.
