Genetic variation happens when one organism in the population mates with a genetically different organism. Same species, different genetics such as color or height/weight.
Crossing over is a process that happens between homologous chromosomes in order to increase genetic diversity. During crossing over, part of one chromosome is exchanged with another. The result is a hybrid chromosome with a unique pattern of genetic material.
All of his men will die and he will not make it home in which he plans.
Traits included physical features such as flower color. Today, these factors are called <u>alleles</u>. Mendel developed the hypothesis that some factors could be dominant, while others were <u>recessive</u>. According to his theory, a dominant factor is expressed when <u>only one factor is presen</u>t in the offspring. On the other hand, a <u>recessive</u> factor expresses its <u>phenotype</u> when <u>both factors are present</u> in the offspring. Today, the term<u> genotype </u>refers to the combination of factors possessed by an organism.

Mitosis is how we repair our cells and grow. It is the process of cell division. When you get a cut or you're a kid growing up, your cells are constantly dividing themselves to repair that cut or two add to your growing body. it takes 24 hours for a human cell to divide itself. This is always occurring from the day you were born.
