Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction

How is genetic material exchanged during meiosis?

A) Following telophase, cytokinesis seperates the cell into two daughter cells.

B) Microtubules attach to fused homologous chromosomes.

C) Segments of homologous chromosomes recombine, creating recombinant chromosomes

D) Chromosomes are replicated and produce identical copies during DNA replication.

Meiosis and Sexual Reproduction

Sexual reproduction is the most successful form of reproduction within eukaryotes because:

A) in many animals, fragmentation is the sole mode of reproduction.

B) a sexually-reproducing population will leave less descendants with decreased genetic diversity.

C) genetic diversity offers offspring a greater change of survival.

D) they are able to reproduce within an unpredictable environment without the requirement of a partner.
