Summary Introduction
Introduction:
According to the chromosomal theory of inheritance, chromosomes are the genetic material carriers in an individual. The theory is an extension to the Mendelian laws of inheritance as it recognizes the chromosomes as a paired factor. Law of independent assortment of genes proposed by Mendel states the segregation of different genes independently from one another.
