The chromosomal theory of Inheritance states that chromosomes are carriers of genetic heredity.
- The Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance was proposed by Walter Sutton and Theodor Boveri, The theory is based on the principle that chromosomes are carriers of genetic unit called as genes.
- Principles of the chromosome theory of Inheritance were found to be consistent with Mendel's laws of Inheritance. Following are some of the observations from the theory:
- Each of the parents synthesize gametes that contain half of their chromosomal complement.
- These gametic chromosome combine during fertilization to produce same number of chromosomes in the offspring as both the parents.
- During the the process of Meiosis, homologous pairs migrate as independent and discrete structures.
- The sorting of chromosomes from each homologous pair is random.
