Question

Explain the relationship between crossing over and genetic variation.

Answer 1

Crossing over is the process by which genetic material is exchanged by non-sister chromatids during meiosis.Crossing over results in a new combination of genetic information for the cell for a specific trait.Crossing over ensures that organisms are not identical from generation to generation.Genetic recombination allows for a variation in genetic material that is passed through the generations. e2020 answer

Answer 2

Crossing over is termed as a process by which genetic materials are exchanged by non-sister chromatids during meiosis.
Crossing over results in the new combination of information in genetic for, the cell for a specific trait.
It ensures that organisms are identical from one generation to another. Genetic recombination allows variations in genetic materials which are passed through generations.
