According to the Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance, genes are located in the nucleus of a cell. This theory, proposed by Thomas Hunt Morgan in 1910, states that genes are located on chromosomes, which are found in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells. Genes are segments of DNA that encode for specific traits, and they are transmitted from one generation to the next through the process of meiosis. The Chromosomal Theory of Inheritance has become a fundamental concept in the field of genetics, and has contributed to our understanding of how genetic traits are passed down from parents to offspring.
