Answer:

D

Explanation:

Things like unhealthy eating or drinking habits, and exposure to asbestos can harm your health, but it can't cause genetic disorders and diseases. Only DNA mutations can cause them.

Mutations in the DNA sequence can occur during meiosis, or the creation of gametes. The gametes can become defective. For example, extra or excess chromosomes can be produced. If defective gametes fertilize, the offspring can end up with genetic disorders.

What is the significance of chromosomes crossing over during the prophase stage of meiosis?
Fittoniya [83]
Well, when chromosomes cross over during prophase 1 of meiosis, the homologous pair of chromosomes exchange segments of DNA which happen to be the genes. So the significance of crossing-over during prophase 1 is that it adds genetic variation to sexually reproducing organisms.
