    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_eponymous_laws

    Mendel's second law, the law of independent assortment, states that different traits will be inherited independently by the offspring. Menzerath's law , or Menzerath–Altmann law (named after Paul Menzerath and Gabriel Altmann ), is a linguistic law according to which the increase of a linguistic construct results in a decrease of its ...

  5. Meiosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiosis

    Meiosis generates gamete genetic diversity in two ways: (1) Law of Independent Assortment. The independent orientation of homologous chromosome pairs along the metaphase plate during metaphase I and orientation of sister chromatids in metaphase II, this is the subsequent separation of homologs and sister chromatids during anaphase I and II, it ...

  6. Chromosome segregation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosome_segregation

    Following recombination, chromosome segregation occurs as indicated by the stages metaphase I and anaphase I in the meiosis diagram. Different pairs of chromosomes segregate independently of each other, a process termed “independent assortment of non-homologous chromosomes”. This process results in each gamete usually containing a mixture ...

  7. Chromosomal crossover - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromosomal_crossover

    This principle of "independent assortment" of genes is fundamental to genetic inheritance. [28] However, the frequency of recombination is actually not the same for all gene combinations. This leads to the notion of " genetic distance ", which is a measure of recombination frequency averaged over a (suitably large) sample of pedigrees.

  8. Mendelian inheritance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mendelian_inheritance

    The Law of Independent Assortment proposes alleles for separate traits are passed independently of one another. [38] [35] That is, the biological selection of an allele for one trait has nothing to do with the selection of an allele for any other trait. Mendel found support for this law in his dihybrid cross experiments.

  9. Genetic linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genetic_linkage

    Genetic linkage is the tendency of DNA sequences that are close together on a chromosome to be inherited together during the meiosis phase of sexual reproduction.Two genetic markers that are physically near to each other are unlikely to be separated onto different chromatids during chromosomal crossover, and are therefore said to be more linked than markers that are far apart.
