Answer:
By 1902, the chromosome movement during
meiosis had been worked out.
Walter Sutton and Theodore
Boveri, (1902) noted that the behaviour of chromosomes was parallel to the
behaviour of genes and used chromosome movement to explain Mendel'sLaws.
They studied the behaviour of
chromosomes during mitosis (equational division) and during meiosis (reduction
division). The chromosomes as well as genes occur in pairs and the two alleles
of a gene pair are located of homologous sites of homologous chromosomes.
Chromosome
movement in meiosis and germ cell formation in a cell with four chromosomes. Chromosomes
segregate when germ cells are formed
