If a cell contained 12 chromosomes during interphase, there would be 24 chromosomes present during anaphase. In order to visualize mendel"s law of segregation you can observe homologous chromosomes separating during meiosis i: homologous chromosomes each carry an allele for every gene. Those alleles may be the same or different, but they are segregating during meiosis i and distributed to each gamete. In humans, the male gamete determines sex because each male gamete can contribute either an x or y chromosome. Thus, women alleles for each gene separate during gamete formation. 4 have twice the chance of inheriting the dominant allele that causes this disorder. Remember that the disorder is caused by a dominant allele, so an individual who inherits a single dominant allele will display the disorder. The f2 generation included 315 plants producing round yellow peas, 108 with round green peas, 101 with wrinkled yellow peas, and 32 with wrinkled green peas.
