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.

Which is a weakness of traditional food webs when they are applied to complex ecological problems?

Anna007 [38]

A food web does not represent all the links in an actual ecosystem.

Explanation:

A food web is also called food cycle. It is understood by the natural interconnection of chain and their graphical representation. The concept is given by Charles Elton. He mentioned about the concept of food cycles in Animal Ecology but later this food cycle is replaced by food web.

Food web are limited representation of eco system. Ecologists can keep together all life forms broadly into one of the two categories which is called tropic levels. These two categories are autotrophs and heterotrophs
