Question

Meiosis involves the separation of parent alleles in order to form gametes. Mendel’s Law of Segregation states that since alleles separate into different gametes, only one of the two alleles passes from a parent to an offspring. This segregation of alleles during meiosis allows for ________________________.

increased chance that the offspring will inherit a dominant allele
decreased chance that the offspring will inherit a dissorder
increased genetic variability in offspring
decreased genetic variability in offspring
