Meiosis involves crossing over where chromosomes exchange genetic segments, resulting in different sets of chromosomes. Each time an egg or sperm created, it is different due to this recombination. Mitosis on the other hand is non-sex cells replicating exact copies of themselves which lead to no genetic variation as they aren't involved in producing offspring.
Answer:
The observed image will not be sharp
Explanation:
When 100x microscope objective lens is being used, light refraction in the air is enough high to produce image alterations. Image distortions can be minimized by immersion oil because this liquid has a higher refractive index than air. However, light refraction is not usually noticeable when using 4x, 10x and 40x objective lenses. Moreover, this image will not be sharp after putting oil on the slide and going back to the 40x objective, it is for that reason that the 40x is called 'high dry' lens. In consequence, it is required to clean the immersion oil off the 40x objective. In general, it is required to to remove the oil and refocus off the slide and lens immediately after oil immersion (it can be done by using an oil-soluble solvent).
Gene mutations can be passed on to future generations and drive natural selection. ... Gene mutations can be helpful, harmful, or neutral for an organism's survival. Only mutations that are helpful in the organism's environment would influence its survival and reproduction
