What characterizes the independent assortment of genes into gametes?   Alleles of genes on one pair of homologous chromosomes sort depending on the assortment of alleles on other chromosomes.   Alleles of genes on one pair of homologous chromosomes tend to sort independently of alleles on other chromosomes.   Different alleles on the same chromosome that are far apart usually sort together.   Different alleles on the same chromosome that are close together usually sort independently.
