Meiosis serves two purposes in life, one is to reduce the number chromosomes by half. the other is to create genetic diversity. Two events happen during Meiosis which help to create genetic diversity. The first happens in Prophase I and is called Crossing over.​

<u>Explanation:</u>

A cell division type that helps in the chromosome reduction in the parent cell into 4 gamete cells is known as Meiosis. For sexual reproduction to take place this process is very essential for the production of sperm and egg cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction.

These cells unite to form a single cell in which the chromosomes are restored. Crossing over is done to generate genetic diversity and the homologous chromosomes are positioned in a random manner. In this stage the number of chromosome is reduced from 2n to n.

Suppose you treated butter with a fatty acid desaturase, an enzyme that removes hydrogen from fatty acids and creates double bon
LekaFEV [45]

When a butter is treated with fatty acid desaturase, the hydrogen atom will be removed and form a carbon double bond, which allow the membrane to become more fluid. When temperatures change, a phase transition occurs. If the temperature decrease, the membrane gels becomes solid which then results to cracks and the imbedded proteins cannot partake in conformational changes, thus it is important to maintain membrane fluidity.
