Independent assortment refers to the fact that: O a. dominant chromosomes determine the assortment of alleles in the daughter cells O b. recessive and dominants assort independently in meiosis O c. when chromosomes separate during meiosis, each pair does so without being influenced by how members of other pairs in the cell separate O d. chromatids randomly separate when they go to different daughter cells
