It's the Gene-Chromosome Theory.
Mutation
Segregation.
23, there are 23 chromosomes in human gametes
No
Human gametes contain 23 chromosomes.
Mutation
Segregation.
Independent assortment is the random assortment of chromosomes during the production of gametes. This results in genetically unique gametes. The gametes are genetically different to the one another. This leads to genetic variation.
Gametes have haploid chromosomes, which means they have half the number of chromosomes of other cells in the body.
Gametes have half the number of chromosomes - therefore if the diploid number is 22, the gametes would have 11 chromosomes.
23 chromosomes
Homologous chromosomes
In human gametes, chromosomes are not paired. Instead, each gamete has one set of 23 chromosomes, and is said to be haploid.
Gametes require half the number of chromosomes of a somatic (regular) cell as gametes are the sex cells. When gametes combine to make a zygote (a fertilised cell), the complete number of chromosomes will be present.
23, there are 23 chromosomes in human gametes
Since gametes are haploids, they would each contain haploid number of chromosomes, 15 chromosomes.
