Homework Answers
Alleles of a gene are located on same portion of homologous chromosomes. In the meiosis I, during metaphase I these homologous chromosomes arranged on metaphasic plate facing opposite poles. Then they move to different poles during anaphase. So during gamete formation, pair of alleles of different chromosomes seperate.
It is a random event as each homologous chromosome pair can organize themselves in metaphase I in random orientation independently of other pair of homologous chromosome. Each allele has equal probability of pairing up with any allele of another chromosome or seperating from any allele of another chromosome. It can pair randomly and independently.

There are two meiotic events that contribute to genetic diversity in a population (random chromosomes alignment and crossing over) After meiosis has increased diversity, there is one more place that genetic diversity can increase even further. This place is the events leading to fertilization. Explain what happens during this stage of reproduction that increases the genetic diversity in a population even more than meiosis alone

Which of these statements is incorrect? Syntenic genes are located on the same chromosome. Independent assortment results in recombinant chromosomes. You can reliably predict the relative genetic distance from genes’ physical distance on a chromosome. Linked genes are always syntenic. What is the relative genetic distance between two linked genes if the recombination frequency is 0.49? 0.49 cM 4.9 cM 49 cM 490 cM What statement best explains the distortion in Mendelian ratios observed by Bateson & Punnett in 1905?...
