Sexual reproduction increases genetic variation through crossing over in prophase I, random chromosome assortment in metaphase I, and random fertilization.
Genetic variation in sexual reproduction comes from crossing over during prophase I, random chromosome assortment during metaphase I, and random fertilization.
| Text | Sexual reproduction in eukaryotes involving gamete formation increases genetic variation in three ways: (1) crossing over during prophase I, (2) random assortment of chromosomes during metaphase I, and (3) random fertilization of gametes. |
