Options:

Answer:

According to Mendel's Law of Segregation, the two alleles of a gene present in a diploid organism separate or segregate from each other during meiosis (gamete formation).

As a result, each gamete receives only one allele of a gene.

Therefore, a gamete generally contains one allele of a gene.

Answer: one allele of a gene
