Answer: True

Explanation:

Crossing over is the swapping of genetic material during meiosis, which is the process by which egg and sperm (gametes) are created. During prophase of this type of cell division, <u>paired chromosomes from each parent align so they are able to exchange segments between nonsister chromatids in meiosis.</u> This process creates new combinations of genes in the gametes that is going to be created and those genes are not found in either parent, <u>contributing to genetic diversity</u>.

Also, <u>during anaphase of meiosis, the pairs of homologous chromosome are separated to form gametes</u> (which are haploid cells), and this separation is random. This means, of the two chromosomes that already have genetic diversity due to crossing over, each one is going to end up in a new cell randomly. And any of this new gametes with all of these genetic diveristy, will be used during fertilization to create a new organism.

Which of the following is something you should do after severe weather occurs?
sp2606 [1]

<em>Clean up flood waters.</em>

Cleaning up will always be the step after the storm. Assuming they're talking about a hurricane, then the flood waters would need to be cleaned up. Besides for the last choice (which is utterly ridiculous!), those should be before and during the storm.

Depending on where you live and what kind of sever weather you encounter, a safety plan for you and your family is a must. You should always know where you can go to be safe from the elements and what to do during severe weather.

During the storm, stay away from windows. This pertains to all weather, including those with wind and lightning. Wind could blow debris that could possibly shatter glass and hurt you or others. With lightning, if it strikes the window, it will shatter it, merely from the heat of the contact.
