Genes A and B are on different chromosomes. An individual has the genotype: AaBb You sequence two gametes produced by this individual and find one gamete has the genotype AB, and one has the genotype Ab. How can this one individual (genotype AaBb) produce two gametes with different genotypes (AB or Ab)? Your answer should describe a specific process which occurs during meiosis. At what stage of meiosis does this process occur?

Mitochondrial Mutations

A mitochondrion is a cellular organelle that serves as the site for cellular respiration and energy production (ATP or Adenosine Triphosphate). It is a double-membrane-bound organelle and is only present in eukaryotic cells.
