Alleles are passed from parents to offspring through the process of inheritance during reproduction. Alleles are located on chromosomes, which are found in the cell nucleus. When gametes (sperm and egg cells) are formed, alleles segregate and are randomly distributed to the offspring, resulting in genetic variation.

When alleles on homologous chromosomes move into different gametes during meiosis this demonstrates?

Segregation


Do dominant alleles move farther in electrophoresis?

Not always. Different chromosomal fragments travel different distances in electrophoresis due to their different lengths. Longer fragments are heavier and therefore travel shorter distances under the same electrical force.


Is this true or false when alleles segregate from each other they join?

False. Because segregation is a separation of alleles during gamete formation.
