Question

Briefly describe how three different processes that occur during a sexual life cycle increase the genetic diversity of offspring.

Accepted Answer

Hello everyone here. We have a question that says one source of genetic variation during my oh sis is one pairs of homologous chromosomes exchange their genetic material in a process called so we have a crossing over. Crossing over happens when genetic material between non sister chromosomes of home A log X chromosomes exchange during my Oh sis. Because these are non sister crow motives and they're exchanging information. This results in new genetic variation in the daughter cells. So our answer is a but let's take a look at our other choices. We have be splicing. Splicing is the process in which introns are removed from the pre arm and pre M. RNA before it exits the nucleus. So be would be incorrect. See independent assortment. This is when the chromosomes move randomly to separate polls during mitosis. So C. Is incorrect. N. D. Alignment alignment is when chromosomes align in the equatorial plane during meta phase. So D. Is incorrect. So again, our answer is a crossing over. Thank you for watching. Bye.
