Exon shuffling may explain this phenomena. Gene expression cause the transcription of DNA (let's say a DNA segment that make an allele) in to mRNA. Eukaryotic mRNA undergoes cutting and splicing mechanism where the exons are united together by splicing introns. Imagine an exon pattern 1-2-3 codes for a particular allele/inheritance/trait, random shuffling that produce 1-3-2 or 2-3-1 will cause significant change on that particular trait. When this pattern can be formed by combining exons from a different allele(say A-B-C) unique pattern such as 3-B-1-C would yield a totally new trait.

What is segregation in Mendels law of segregation?
alleles
The separation of alleles is called?
Segregation.
What determines which allele of each pair goes into a gamete?
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.
How traits can disappear and reappear from generation to generation is called?
law of segregation of alleles
How does dropping the stick on the table and transcribing the letters on the sides facing up follow Mendels Law of Segregation?
Dropping the sick simulates segregation because it determines what alleles end up in the gamete. You can't have both alleles.
What is segregation in Mendels law of segregation?
alleles
The separation of alleles is called?
Segregation.
The seperation of alleles is called?
Segregation.
Explain the implications of Mendel's law of segregation as it applies to the distribution of alleles in gametes?
The law of segregation states that when the egg and sperm combine at fertilization, the alleles are restored in the paired condition. This means that each side's allele combines, and the dominance effects of Mendelian understanding of genetics comes into play.
What is the seperation of alleles?
The law of segregation of alleles, the first of Mendel's laws, stating that every somatic cell of an organism carries a pair of hereditary units (now identified as alleles) for each character, and that at meiosis the pairs separate so that each gamete carries only one unit from each pair. This is called the law of segregation.

What is the process in which two alleles separates from a gene?
Segregation
What is the separation of two alleles in a heterozygote when gametes are formed?
segregation
Segregation of alleles occurs during?
Segregation.
Is this true or false when alleles segregate from each other they join?
False. Because segregation is a separation of alleles during gamete formation.
When the alleles segregate it means they join together?
No, segregation is the act of spiting apart.
