In what two ways does meiosis provide genetic variation?
The two sources of genetic variation in a cell during Meiosis are crossing-over during synapse and independent assortment.
What are 3 ways sexual reproduction leads to genetic diversity?
As an example, humans have 46 chromosomes, in 23 pairs. In each daughter cell of meiosis, one from each pair is given, resulting in a randomized selection from those 23 pairs. The most important way this variability is shown is that, during the chromosome duplication and division, parts of each chromosome are swapped over randomly, though only parts serving the same purpose are swapped. Finally, at the end of a single cell's meiosis, there's not two, but four daughter cells, allowing for more options per single cell undergoing meiosis.
What can occur after meiosis but not mitosis that ensures genetic variation?
There is a process that occurs during meiosis called genetic crossover. It occurs in zygotes (fertilized egg cells). When two double stranded homologous chromosomes (one from your mother and one from your father) bond, they form a a structure called a tetrad. When all of your mother and fathers chromosomes are matched up like this, the genes from both parents mix up. When they separate back into regular double stranded chromosomes, your parents DNA is mixed up with each other in different ways. This creates genetic variation.
What the ways new genetic combinations are formed during meiosis?
Crossing-Over- Chromatids exchange genetic material.Independent Assortment- The random distribution of homologous chromosomes during meiosis.Random Fertilization- Adds genetic variation. The zygote that forms is made by the random joining of two gametes. Because fertilization of an egg by a sperm is random, the number of possible outcomes is squared.
How many ways can cell replicate?
Two meiosis and mitosis

How does meiosis contribute to genetic variation?
By recombining the genetic material in two ways with a third way furthering variation. 1. The independent orientation of the chromosomes during prophase I of meiosis. 2. Crossing over between chromosomes in prophase I of meiosis. 3. Random fertilization of gametes.
What are some ways various ways that generic variation can be introduced in organisms that reproduce?
By crossing over, hybridization, mutation and artificial gene transfer.

What are four ways in which meiosis different from mitosis?
Meiosis differs from mitosis in the following ways; meiosis produces four cells while mitosis two produces cells. Meiosis occurs in sex cells while mitosis occurs body cells.

What is the significance of meiosis?
1.The number of chromosomes get halfed in gamets so that on firtilization the orignal umber is restored. 2.the mixing up of gens occurs in 2 ways : maternal and paternal gens get mixed up during 1st division as they seprate from homologus pair

What are two ways that the products of mitosis and meiosis in humans are different?
because
What is a major cause of variation within species?
Variation of a species can come about in many ways, but mutation is the major cause of variation in a species.
What are two differences between mitosis and meiosis?
1: Mitosis and Meiosis are the two ways by which cells reproduce.2: Mitosis and meiosis produce fresh new cells based on their parent cells' genes.
