Answer:

Crossing over increases the genetic variation  

Errors in crossover formation result in chromosomal rearrangements (duplications and deletions) and may also cause chromosome nondisjunction

Explanation:

Crossing over, also known as recombination, refers to the exchange of genetic material (DNA) between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Crossing over increases the genetic variation of the resulting gametes, allowing different genetic combinations to be passed from parents to offspring. Unequal crossing over is a type of error associated with chromosomal duplication and/or deletion events. Unequal crossing over occurs when homologous sequences are not paired precisely. Moreover, errors in crossing over may also cause chromosome nondisjunction, thereby leading to aneuploidies.

During an experiment, readings for blood pressure in a person’s body were found to be constant. However, when measured by a diff
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

This difference indicates that the results are precise but not accurate .

Explanation:

Precise results are those that are very close to the actual result, but do not achieve exactly the same result. In addition, this difference between the precise results is exactly the same. We have an example of this in the case shown in the figure above, where the blood pressure readings measured by the cuff differ by 15 points for each reading. This case also shows us that the results are not accurate, because this type of result is one that shows a result exactly the same as the real one.
