Meiosis & Independent Assortment Demo

Meiosis & Independent Assortment Demo Metaphase I: Click chromosome pairs to flip their orientation. Mendel's 2nd Law The Law of Independent Assortment arises because homologous pairs align randomly during Metaphase I. Meiosis & Independent Assortment Demo lets you explore this hands-on instead of only reading about it.

Principles of inheritance, chromosomal segregation, and pedigree analysis. It focuses on Law of Segregation, Independent Assortment, Meiosis I and II, Nondisjunction, Pedigree Analysis from the “Mendelian Genetics and Meiosis” section.

The “Flip Pair 1 (A/a)”, “Flip Pair 2 (B/b)”, “Start Meiosis”, “Reset Cell” buttons run actions or reset the demo. Every change updates the visualization in real time, so you can see exactly how each variable affects the outcome.

You'll build intuition for Law of Segregation, Independent Assortment, Meiosis I and II, Nondisjunction, Pedigree Analysis — and, crucially, see how they behave when you change the inputs, which is hard to get from a textbook or lecture on Introductory Biology alone.
