In organisms that reproduce sexually, most variation that can be inherited is due to
|
|
mutations during gamete formation
|
|
|
polygenic traits
|
|
|
gene recombination during sexual reproduction
|
|
|
the effects of radiation
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The unique combination of alleles that all sexually reproducing organisms receive from their parents is the direct result of recombination during meiosis.
Detailed explanation-2: -Sexual reproduction has the potential to produce tremendous genetic variation in offspring. This variation is due to independent assortment and crossing-over during meiosis, and random union of gametes during fertilization.
