Why is the frequency of recombinant gametes always half the frequency of crossing over?

1 answer:

3 0

Crossing over occurs at the four-strand stage when two homologous chromosomes, each consisting of a pair of sister chromatids, are paired. Each crossover involves just two of the four strands and generates two recombinant strands.

Hope this helps!

Temka [501]

There have be found some fossils of ancient remains over the years. What the fossils from Atapuerca revealed about the hominins living in Europe at this time is below:

The Skull is known to show Interbreeding that took place with neandertals and their relatively healthy population.

The Fragment shows that there was a possibility of cannibalism in that area.

It shows that possible cannibalism took place as there were Cutmarks on various hominin bones found at Atapuerca mirror.

The relatively healthy population was found out through the study of the dentition of the Atapuerca hominins by anthropologists. It gave them a view into their diet and overall health.

The interbreeding with the Neandertals was shown through the Nuclear DNA that was gotten from bones and teeth of bones found at Sima de los Huesos
