How do the random distribution of chromosomes and crossovers create more variation in the resulting gametes?

Biology
1 answer:
Oksanka [162]3 years ago
4 0

When cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed during anaphase I, separating and segregating independently of each other. This is called independent assortment. It results in gametes that have unique combinations of chromosomes.

<em>Crossing over creates new combinations of genes in the gametes that are not found in either parent, contributing to genetic diversity.</em>

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

" Natural gas does not produce greenhouse gases as other energy sources do."

Explanation:

The answer, "Coal deposits are found on nearly every continent and mining coal poses few risks." shows only how it can be a better option, but does not show how it can benefit.

The answer, "Petroleum is relatively inexpensive compared to other forms of energy." only shows how it can be a better option, but does not show how it can benefit.

The answer, "Nuclear power increases water vapor in the atmosphere." does not clearly state how this benefits us.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

A. Cellular respiration

C. Photosynthesis

Explanation:

There are two main processes occurs in the carbon cycle i.e. cellular respiration and photosynthesis. Plants absorb carbondioxide gas from the atmosphere through small openings called stomata. The carbondioxide enters the leaves and combine with water produces glucose and oxygen. Glucose is stored in different parts of plant whereas some oxygen is used by the plant and the remaining oxygen is releases in the atmosphere while on the other hand, in cellular respiration, glucose is broken down to produce energy in the form of ATP, carbondioxide gas and water.
