Stage of mitosis when nucleolus disappears & duplicated chromosomes are visible.

Prophase

Stage of mitosis when duplicated chromosomes line up midway between spindle poles.

Metaphase

Stage of mitosis when sister chromatids of each chromosome are separated & pulled to opposite spindle poles.

Anaphase

Stage of mitosis when nuclear envelopes forms around each cluster of chromosomes.

Mendel's Law of Segregation: Observed a ratio of _______ for monohybrid crosses.

3:1
(3 dominant, 1 recessive)

"Genes are distributed independentally of other gene pairs. (Result of dyhybrid crosses.)"

Mendel's Law of Independent Assortment

Two non-identical alleles both fully expressed at the same time in heterzygotes, neither is dominant or recessive.

Codominance
