Answer #1

Allele is the form of gene or 2 or more versions of a gene. Allele is a viable DNA coding that occupies position on chromosome.

The concept of segreggaton and independent assortment is based on principle of Mendel's Law as the seggregation was 1st observed by Gregor Mendel.

The concept of seggregation.:  

Charecteristics and the gene transfer from one generation to other generation i.e., from parent to offsprings in Gametogeneis. there is 50% chances of getting specific trait from mother and 50% chance of getting trait from father. The trait are seperated in the process of gametogeneis. This is the only process applicable for Monohybrid cross. For example:

y}-----> yellow

Y}------>Green

so the offspring may get either yellow or green.

The concept of Independent Assortment:

The process is based on dihybrid cross two or more than two traits.

During the process of gametogeneis the two charecteristics are not depended on one another.

For example: Height: tt-----> short

TT------> Tall

y}-----> yellow

Y}------>Green

These two traits do not have equal influence on the offspring.

In one DNA if we have T T T T T t

Y Y y y y Y

In this case if we take the example of a plant the trait may have green or yellow flowers or the plant may be short or tall. So we get a lot of different combinations.

In independent assortment one character do not influence the effect of another character.
