What is the relationship between independent assortment and meiosis?
Meiosis 1 is the process of separating chromosomes (independent assortment). Independent assortment is the random assortment of chromosomes. So without meiosis, there would be no way to separate the chromosomes randomly. Hope that helps(:
What is the random separation of maternal and paternal chromosomes during anaphase 1?
independent assortment
Independent assortment in sexual reproduction?
Independent assortment happens at random when alleles are taken from different homlogous chromosomes or when the same pair of chroosomes are far apart during meiosis; this results in diversity in genetic combinations.
When does independent assortment occur in mitosis?
Independent assortment does not happen in mitosis, it happens in meiosis. In metaphase I of meiosis, synapsed homologous chromosomes align independently of one another along the metaphase plate. That is to say, one aligning in a certain fashion has no effect on another aligning in a certain fashion. In mitosis, chromosomes are exact copies of the parental cell's and independent assortment is a method of achieving genetic variation, which does not happen in mitosis.
The calculation of offspring includes only variation resulting from?
crossing over, random fertilization, and an independent assortment of chromosomes
What process produces genetic diversity through random distribution of chromosomes?
The random distribution of homologous chromosomes during meiosis is called independent assortment

Type of assortment that involves the random distribution of homologous chromosomes during meiosis?
(Mendel's law of) independent assortment. This states that the chromosomes can line up along the equatorial line in 2^23 different arrangements (in humans- but 2^n in other animals with a different number of chromosomes)

What is the importance of the random alignment of homologous pairs in Metaphase 1?
The random alignment of homologous pairs of chromosomes during Metaphase 1 allows for independent assortment of genes.
The law of independent assortment governs chromosomes behavior during mitosis?
Chromosomes sort independently, not individual genes.
