Law of segregation / Monohybrid cross detailed explanation | Chapter Genetics / Inheritance

hi, Thanks for watching my video about Mendel law of segregation or Monohybrid cross. In this video I'll walk you through Four concepts related to law of inheritance: A gene can exist in more than one form or allele. Organisms inherit two alleles for each trait. When sex cells are produced (by meiosis), allele pairs separate leaving each cell with a single allele for each trait. When the two alleles of a pair are different, one is dominant and the other is recessive. Mendel formulated the law of segregation as a result of performing Monohybrid cross experiments on plants. The specific traits that he studied exhibited complete dominance. In complete dominance, one phenotype is dominant, and the other is recessive. Not all types of genetic inheritance, however, show total dominance. Punnett square: to study Mendel law of inheritance. The genotypes and phenotypes resulting from combining gametes during fertilization can be easily visualized by constructing a diagram called a Punnett square, named after the person who first devised this approach, Reginald C. #mendellawofinheritance #mendellawofsegregation
