Question
how many homologous chromosome alignments are possible for independent assortment during meiosis?
one
two
three
four
Brief Explanations
During meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up. For independent assortment, each pair of homologous chromosomes can align in two different ways at the metaphase plate. This is because one chromosome of the pair can be on one side (e.g., the left - hand side) and the other on the opposite side (e.g., the right - hand side), and vice versa.
