Question

Assume that an organism exists in which crossing over does not occur, but that all other processes associated with meiosis occur normally. Consider how the absence of crossing over would affect the outcome of meiosis.

If crossing over did not occur, which of the following statements about meiosis would be true? Select all that apply.

Part C Crossing over and genetic variation Assume that an organism exists in which crossing over does not occur, but that all other processes associated with meiosis occur normally. Consider how the absence of crossing over would affect the outcome of meiosis. If crossing over did not occur, which of the following statements about meiosis would be true? Select all that apply. The two daughter cells produced in meiosis l would be identical. The daughter cells of meiosis l would be diploid, but the daughter cells of meiosis ll would be haploid. There would be less genetic variation among gametes. V Independent assortment of chromosomes would not occur. V The four daughter cells produced in meiosis ll would all be different. The two sister chromatids of each replicated chromosome would no longer be identical. Submit Hints My Answers. Give Up Review Part

Explanation / Answer

Ans.) If crossing over do not take place during meiosis in an organism, but that all other processes associated with meiosis occur normally. In this situation, there would be less genetic variation among gametes due to the lack of segregation that occurs during crossing over.
