why would shuffling genetic material to produce new combinations of characteristics be advantageous to a species?

Biology
1 answer:
Radda [10]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Suffling of genetic material increases genetic variation in offspring which is important for evolution.

Explanation:

Genetic shuffling or genetic recombination helps in the formation of new trait combinations which increase the genetic variation in the population and this genetic variation is very much important for the evolution of species.

In sexual reproduction, the genetic shuffling occurs during the formation of gametes when the two homologous chromosomes exchange their genetic material with each other. This increase variation in gametes.

Fusion of two different gametes in sexual reproduction also helps in increasing the genetic variation in the offspring.

Nesterboy [21]

Answer:

The mentioned parental types are c+m- and c-m+. Thus, the recombinants will be c+m+ and c-m-.  

Now, the given distance between c and m is 8 map units. Thus, the recombinant frequency is 8% or 0.08.  

The total recombinants from 1000 plaques will come out to be 80,  

Thus, the recombinants of each type will be 40.  

Total parental type will be 920, and therefore, each parental type count will be 460.  

Thus, expected c+m- = 460, expected c-m+ = 460, expected c+m+ = 40 and expected c-m- = 40.

All fruits and vegetables are grown on plans while even meat comes from animals who eat green plans.


Fibres such as wool also come from animals which eat plans, and fossil fuel is made from the remains from millions of years of old plans in the ground.
