8. Crossing over is an exchange of corresponding segments between nonsister
prisoha [69]

The main benefit of crossing over is that it increases genetic diversity.

<h2>Crossing over and Genetic Diversity</h2>

Crossing over ensures that the daughter cells produced are genetically more diverse than their parent cells.

The exchange of chromosomal segments makes the chromosomes of the daughter cells to be more sophisticated than that of their parents.

Increased genetic diversity in daughter cells increases their chances of survival as more genes are present in their genomes that could potentially make them more adaptable to the environment.

In summary, crossing over increases genetic diversity and genetic diversity increases the chances of survival in the face of changing environment.

Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: A. Environmental drivers plus genetic variation in the population result in natural selection

Explanation: over geological time environmental conditions change. Organisms do not survive in one environmental niche with traits adapted to a possible future change that might suit those traits. Adaptation is not a matter of choice: adapt if possible or go extinct.

There is a (badly named) concept called pre-adaptation, which is that variations in some existing trait render adaptation to a different environment more likely.
