The purpose of synapsis is to increase genetic variability

Would genetic variability wipe out the whole human race during meiosis?

No.

If you mean meiosis I and meiosis II, then no they are not identical, but meiosis II does follow meiosis I.


What are the steps in the diploid life cycle?

The steps in the diploid life cycle are meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to diploid, to reproductive cell. The main steps are Meiosis and Fertilization.


What happens during synapsas in meiosis?

The purpose of synapsis in meiosis is to increase genetic variability. It does this as the homolog pairs match up, which means there are 4 chromosomes of like, but possibly unique, DNA data in the grouping. This allows the cell. as it proceeds through Anaphase 1 and Anaphase 2 to separate the individual chromosomes first into 2 pairs then as individuals, which inturn adds to the variability as 1 chromosome goes to each daughter cell. .

Which structure is directly correlated with the production of genetic variability in the daughter cells produced during meiosis?

The crossing over of genetic material during meiosis is directly correlated with the production of genetic variability in daughter cells. Crossing over occurs during prophase I of meiosis when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, leading to new combinations of genes in the daughter cells.


Why is synapsis important to meiosis?

Synapsis creates genetic variability. So the haploid cells produced during meiosis will be different. If this didn't happen, one successful virus is all it would take to eradicate the human race.
