Yes, each gamete receives only one allele for each characteristic. This is because during meiosis, the process of cell division that produces gametes, homologous chromosomes separate and each gamete receives only one copy of each chromosome, which carries one allele for each characteristic. This ensures genetic diversity in offspring as each gamete will have a unique combination of alleles.
