What is the principle of independent assortment as described in the diagram?
Different genes assort (are passed into gametes) independently because they are located on different chromosomes which align randomly at the metaphase plate during meiosis I.
Genes on the same chromosome always assort independently regardless of their position.
Independent assortment only occurs during mitosis, not meiosis.
All genes are inherited together as a single unit regardless of chromosome alignment.
