the law of segregation states that allele pairs
separate during gamete formation. how then do
we have two alleles for a trait?
we receive one allele from each parent.
the alleles join back together before traits are
inherited.
we receive the two alleles at separate times
from one parent.

ted as true based on

The law of segregation in genetics (part of Biology, a Natural Science subfield) explains that allele pairs separate during gamete formation. To have two alleles for a trait, we inherit one allele from each parent (mother and father). The other options are incorrect: alleles don't rejoin before inheritance, and we don't get two alleles from one parent at separate times.
