Question

discuss suton and boveri by making a comparison between the behaviour of chromosome asn genes during meiosis to explain mendals law

Answer 1

Walter sutton and Theoder boveri gave a theory known as chromosomal theory of inheritance. They studied chromosomal movements during meiosis and explain mendel^,s laws on the basis of there observations. They observed that chromosomes and genes both occur in pairs—two alleles of a gene pair are located on homologous sites of homologous chromosomes.

Sutton and Bovery further proposed that it is the pairing and separation of a pair of chromosomes that ultimately leads to segregation of the pair of factors they carry. This is known as the chromosomal theory of inheritance.
