Answer:

In meiosis I, the arrangement of any homologous chromosome along the center plane ( forgot the name for this) is independent of the arrangement of the other homologous chromosomes. There is thus equal probability for the chromosome to be in either of the two daughter cells after meiosis I. This is observed in meiosis 2 metaphase as well where the arrangement of each Sister chromatid about the ‘center plane’ is independent of each other. This independence observed during metaphase of meiosis I and meiosis II allows for chromatids to be in either gamete formed in equal probability, not affecting by other chromatids thus inheritance of one trait is not affected by the inheritance of another trait.

Explain velocity and gradient
Tanya [424]

Velocity is a measure of how fast something moves in a particular direction. In other words, a velocity is a speed with a direction. For instance, if an object moves east at 9 metres per second (9m/s), we would say that its velocity is 9 m/s to the east.

Gradient The formal definition of a concentration gradient is the process of particles, which are sometimes called solutes, moving through a solution or gas from an area with a higher number of particles to an area with a lower number of particles. The areas are typically separated by a membrane.
