[edit] The random selection of chromosomes
Meiosis isn't a random method of chromosome selection. The choice of homologous chromosome 1A vs 1B has no effect on (is independent of) the selection of chromosome 2A vs 2B. Use of the term random implies that the cell is free to choose from the pool of chromosomes (1A 1B 2A 2B). Dr d12 17:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Suggest merge into Mendelian inheritance
The first sentence fails to draw a distinction between segregation and independent assortment. Maybe this article should be merged into Mendelian inheritance. Dr d12 17:17, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
