The oceanic crust is thickest on the points that are the furthest away from the mid-ocean ridges. These makes the parts of the oceanic crust that are in close proximity of the subduction zones to be the thickest parts, pr in other words it comes as the thickest parts of the oceanic crust are the ones that are the closest to the zone of their destruction (or rather recycling).

The oceanic crust is thickest at mid-ocean ridges
Oceanic crust is the outermost layer of Earth's lithosphere that is found under the oceans and formed at spreading centers on oceanic ridges, which occur at divergent plate boundaries. It is about four miles thick and is composed of several layers, not including the overlying sediment.

DIA [1.3K]

Answer:

allows the recombination of genetic information

Explanation:

Crossing over is a process that occurs only in meiotic division in sexually reproducing organisms. It is the process whereby the segments of a gene are exchanged between the non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.

Due to this crossing over process that occurs in prophase I of meiosis, the alleles of a chromosomes are recombined to ensure genetic diversity. Hence, according to this question, crossing over results in additional genetic variation during meiosis because it allows the recombination of genetic information.
