Law Of Independent Assortment Sign Video

No video uploaded yet.

Definition

Also called Mendel's second law. Segregation of allelic forms of a gene into gametes occurs at random with respect to the segregation of alleles of a second gene located on a different pair of homologous chromosomes. Genes located very far apart on a single chromosome also sometimes show independent assortment because crossovers occur between them at a high rate.
