Verified by Toppr

The chromosomal theory of inheritance proposed by Mendel states that there are genes which are passed on from one generation to the next in contrasting pairs on the homologous chromosomes. The genes were called as Mendelian factors. These factors can segregate and individually assort themselves. This enables the factors to maintain their individuality and stability in their expression.
Thus, the correct answer is option B.
