Answer:

If crossing over did not occur there would be no diversity among organisms.

Explanation:

Crossing over and independent assortment are the two phenomena of meiosis by which genetic and physical diversity occurs. If crossing over did not occur then there would not be changes in the physical features of children. No physical diversity would be produced. Children would have the same physical features as the parents. Each chromosome would be identical to one of the parents and hence there will be reduced variations.

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

In inhibitory postsynaptic potentials, the opening of chlorine and potassium channels generally occurs so that chlorine enters, with a negative charge, and potassium leaves, with a positive charge. The synergistic effect of this ionic flow is the hyperpolarization of the cell, making it difficult for an action potential to occur.
