Explanation:
Each unit of inheritance can have alternate states (alleles) that segregate at meiosis, with each gamete receiving only one allele (the principle of segregation, Mendel's first law); different alleles assort independently in the gametes (the principle of independent assortment, Mendel's second law).
The genes in a population give forth the genetic variability across a population (genotypes). In addition, occasional mutations of these genes in a population increase this genetic variability. Hovever, natural selection only favours reproduction of individuals with genes that are favourable in the environment/habitat. Therefore, natural selection has no foresight but is rather pegged on being an ‘opportunistic’ process.
The probability is 1/16 that a gamete will receive only paternal chromosomes. In life
cycles that alternate between haploid and diploid stages, fertilization doubles
the number of chromosomes per cell, The pairing of chromosomes along
their lengths , which is essential for crossing over is referred to as synapsis
