Meiosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes. Meiosis also produces variation by way of the process of recombination.

Recombination- Recombination during Meiosis is facilitated by chromosomal crossover. The crossover process leads to offspring having different combinations of genes from those of their parents and can occasionally produce new chimeric alleles.

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

Alanine to lysine.

Explanation:

Mutation may be defined as the sudden, heritable change in the genome sequence of an organism. Two main types of mutation are chromosomal mutation and point mutation.

The mutation has occurred in which the arginine is replaced by alanine. The mutation that can restore to wild type is the conversion of alanine with lysine.    Since both arginine and lysine are basic amino acids. They both shows almost similar function and the replacement of lysine with alanine shows the wild type activity.

Thus, the answer is alanine to lysine.
