How are genes made by meiosis?

Genes are not made by meiosis. Genes are sequences of DNA found on the chromosomes.


Why is crossing-over during meiosis important?

crossing over during meiosis is important in that it allows the occurrence of various genes, this is it promotes the increase of different genes. lets remember that meiosis occurs in sexually producing animals and that the first phase of meiosis is the reduction of the haploid number to the diploid number. this reduces the occurrences of increasing numbers in chromosomes. crossing over takes place during pro-phase


Can linked genes ever be separated?

crossing over(recombination)


How are crossing over and recombination related?

Genetic recombination occurs during meiosis cell division. As genes cross over during this process, scientists track the genes to study their linkage.


How does meiosis affect inheritance through genes?

Well genes are genes so its ind of obious the question

Propose how crossing-over during meiosis might affect the segregation of genes that are on the same chromosomes?

Segregation is the separating of genes into different cells during meiosis. We have found that there are many more genes that display segregation than there are chromosomes. The explaination is crossing-over - where during prophase I chromosome arms of homologous chromosomes break off and attach to each other. This allows genes on the same chromosome to segregate.

How is meiosis related to genes?

Meiosis allows a cell to form into 4 cells (by meiosis 1 (which is literally mitosis) and meiosis 2 (mitosis without DNA replication)) in meiosis 1, the cells exchanges DNA information between homologous pairs, this allows genes to be transferred and creates 4 unique and distinct cells. segragation of alleles occur too.


What would happen if crossing over during meiosis didn't happen in humans?

If crossing over didn't happen during meiosis in humans, the haploid daughter cells would all have the same genes. The crossing over creates variation and causes each daughter cell to have slightly different genes.


The sorting and recombining of genes during meiosis and fertilization usually leads to the production of?
