GENETICS ● Law of Segregation
○ two members of single gene pair are passed
● Chromosomes from one generation to the next in separate
○ structures that carry genetic information gametes
encoded on double stranded DNA ● Law of Independent Assortment
● Mitosis ○ traits inherited from different chromosomes
○ Cell division that results in the same number are expressed separately and discretely
of chromosomes in new and old cells ● Silent genes
● Meiosis ○ genes that do not produce a detectable
○ Cell division that occurs in gametes that product
results in one-half the number of
chromosomes in each new cell
