Question
what do sexual reproduction, mutation, and crossing-over generate in a population?
○ uniformity
○ gametes
○ genetic diversity
○ meiosis
Sexual reproduction combines genetic material from two parents, crossing-over shuffles alleles during meiosis, and mutations introduce new genetic variations. Together, these processes increase differences in the genetic makeup of a population, which is genetic diversity. Uniformity is the opposite; gametes are sex cells (not the result), and meiosis is a cell division process (not the outcome).
