Racial Mixing - An Overview - Mendelan Laws of InheritancePart 4
... There are hereditary factors (called genes). In each phenotype, two genes exist for each character. At the time of sex-cell formation, the genes of a pair separate equally into the gametes. Geneticists call this the law of segregation. The gametes bear only one gene for each characteristic. Genes fo ...
