Question

match each genetic result with the meiosis process that makes it. (1 point) making haploid cells new gene combinations on a chromosome different parent chromosome mix in gametes cutting chromosome number in half through two cell divisions. trading genetic segments during crossing - over. random sorting of matching pairs during random assortment.

Explanation:

• Making haploid cells: Meiosis involves two cell divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II). The starting cell is diploid. After the first division (homologous chromosomes separate), the cells are haploid. After the second division (sister chromatids separate), the final products (gametes) are haploid. So, "Cutting chromosome number in half through two cell divisions" matches "Making haploid cells".
• New gene combinations on a chromosome: During prophase I of meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up (synapsis) and exchange genetic segments (crossing - over). This results in new gene combinations on the chromosomes. So, "Trading genetic segments during crossing - over" matches "New gene combinations on a chromosome".
• Different parent chromosome mix in gametes: During metaphase I of meiosis, homologous chromosome pairs line up at the equator of the cell. The orientation of each pair is random (random assortment). This leads to different combinations of parental chromosomes in the gametes. So, "Random sorting of matching pairs during random assortment" matches "Different parent chromosome mix in gametes".

Answer:

Making haploid cells - Cutting chromosome number in half through two cell divisions.
New gene combinations on a chromosome - Trading genetic segments during crossing - over.
Different parent chromosome mix in gametes - Random sorting of matching pairs during random assortment.
