TEAS Practice 2023: ScienceWhich of the following correctly describes the law of segregation?
A) It states that the segregation of the dominant trait in the phenotype happens in the
hybrid offspring.
B) It states that all the genetic factors are present in the DNA.
C)It states that allele pairs segregate during gametogenesis and reunite randomly
during the fertilization process.
✅✅
D) It states that the hereditary factors segregate independently of one another during
gametogenesis. - -It states that allele pairs segregate during gametogenesis
and reunite randomly during the fertilization process is the correct answer.
The law of segregation states that each pair of alleles segregate randomly during
gametogenesis (gamete formation). This means that each gamete (sex cell) receives
one copy of a gene (an allele). They later reunite or combine randomly during
fertilization. This way, the offspring acquires one allele from each of the parents.
The law of ________ states that the offspring will always display the dominant trait in
the phenotype by suppressing the recessive trait.
A) independent assortment
✅✅
b) dominance
C) segregation - -dominance
The law of ______assortment states that the traits inherited by the offspring are
independent of each other. Two or more traits do not influence one another.
A) independent assortment
✅✅
b) dominance
C) segregation - -independent assortment

a bond between a partial positive and a partial negative
examples of hydrogen bond - ✅✅-DNA and proteins
polar bond -✅✅-a covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally
example of polar bond - ✅✅-H2O
, how do ribosomes carry out protein synthesis?
A)Ribosomes carry the codons required for protein synthesis.
✅✅
B)Ribosomes can decode mRNA and assemble amino acids for protein synthesis. -
