Question

What is law of segregation by mendel

Answer 1

Law of segregation

Law of segregation states that " During the formation of gametes . the alleles for each gene segregate from each other or separate from each other such that each gamete gets only one allele ."

Concept :

Suppose imagine this cross :

Dominant Brown eye BB is crossing with recessive blue eye bb

Note here that :

The formation of gametes will occur by taking only one allele from BB and another allele from bb

Their probability is 1/2

Here the alleles will be B and b particularly because there is no other choice.

From BB only one allele will be B itself and from bb the allele will also be b itself.

Hope you understood !

Mendelian inheritance is a type of biological inheritance that follows the principles originally proposed by Gregor Mendel in 1865 and 1866, re-discovered in 1900 and popularized by William Bateson. These principles were initially controversial.
