no the do not chromosomes assort independently
L = long hair ; l = short hairS = white spotted ; s=not white spottedthis example shows that the long hair and white spots alleles are dominant, and short hair and not spotted are not dominate.assorted independence means that there are two alleles one will always be dominate.example Ll or Ss
Alleles found on the same chromosome are said to be linked. This means they tend to be inherited together and show a lower rate of recombination. Linked genes are inherited as a group and do not assort independently during meiosis.
Genes assort independently if they are on different chromosomes. If a pair of genes are on the same chromosome, it depends on how far apart they are to determine the chances of them staying together or moving apart.
No, linked genes do not assort independently. Linked genes are located close together on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together, rather than independently assorting during meiosis.
the answer is C multiple alleles. The above answer is wrong. My son has the same question on his Biology homework. He chose the answer, multiple alleles and it was wrong. I believe the correct answer is, chromosomes!
The alleles of 2 or more different gene pairs assort independently of one another.

No they do not
Two genes on the same chromosome can still assort independently if they are far enough apart from each other. During meiosis, crossing over between homologous chromosomes can occur, leading to the exchange of genetic material between the two genes. As a result, the alleles of the two genes can recombine and assort independently during meiosis, leading to new combinations of alleles in the offspring.

For two genes to assort independently, they must reside on different chromosomes or be located far from each other.
Alleles found on the same chromosome are said to be linked. This means they tend to be inherited together and show a lower rate of recombination. Linked genes are inherited as a group and do not assort independently during meiosis.
Genes assort independently if they are on different chromosomes. If a pair of genes are on the same chromosome, it depends on how far apart they are to determine the chances of them staying together or moving apart.
Chromosomes have no direction in how they assort other than that they align in homologous pairs. The individual genes are part of the chromosomes and go wherever the chromosome goes just like the motors of cars go wherever the car goes.
Human blood type is determined by codominant alleles.
No, linked genes do not assort independently. Linked genes are located close together on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together, rather than independently assorting during meiosis.
