👉 Heterogony is a type of genetic variation in plants and animals where two or more genes are located on different chromosomes. This means that each chromosome has its own set of genes, which can lead to complex traits such as coloration, shape, size, and function. Heterogony occurs when the chromosome pair is not balanced, meaning there is an unequal number of copies of a particular gene on each chromosome. This results in genetic variation, allowing for different adaptations in the organism.
