Answer to Question #115994 in Genetics for MAKHUOGA ALFRED FRIDAY

Question

Discussed the concept of inheritance in regards to genetic traits. How does the Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance helped to advance our understanding of genetics?

Answer 1

Genetic inheritance is a basic principle of genetics and explains how characteristics are passed from one generation to the next.

 Boveri and Sutton's chromosome theory of inheritance states that genes are found at specific locations on chromosomes, and that the behavior of chromosomes during meiosis can explain Mendel's laws of inheritance.
