Biology

Mendel’s law aligns perfectly with the events of meiosis, particularly during anaphase I, where homologous chromosomes (each carrying different alleles) are separated.

Each gamete produced at the end of meiosis contains only one allele for each gene, ensuring that offspring inherit one allele from each parent when gametes fuse during fertilization.

This is the biological basis for Mendel’s conclusion that inheritance involves the segregat...
