WHAT DOES HOMOLOGUE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Homologous chromosome

A homologous chromosome is a set of one maternal chromosome and one paternal chromosome that pair up with each other inside a cell during meiosis. These copies have the same genes in the same locations, or loci. These loci provide points along each chromosome which enable a pair of chromosomes to align correctly with each other before separating during meiosis. Genetic recombination occurs during meiosis in cells containing these parental chromosomes, producing genotypes in the offspring that are new and different combinations of the parental alleles. This recombination is due to either pairs of homologous chromosomes randomly segregating into two different daughter cells, or by crossing over, a process where homologous chromosomes exchange lengths of their genetic material. This is the basis for Gregor Mendel’s laws of genetics that characterize inheritance patterns of genetic material from an organism to its offspring.
