In meiosis, each of the four daughter cells has one set of chromosomes. Due to randomness of process of chromosome separation in meiosis, large number of chromosome combinations can form gametes. How many such chromosome combinations in the gametes are possible in case of humans, assuming there is no crossing over taking place ?

To determine the number of possible chromosome combinations in the gametes of humans during meiosis, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Process of Meiosis**: Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in four daughter cells, each with one set of chromosomes (haploid). 2. **Identify the Chromosome Number in Humans**: Humans have a total of 46 chromosomes, which means they have 23 pairs of chromosomes. During meiosis, each gamete receives one chromosome from each pair. ...
