Crossing over of sister chromatids in prophase 1 of meiosis, independent assortment along the metaphase plate in metaphase 1 of meiosis.
Not sure what a third one is.

There are more actually 4 causes that cause genetic variety even though mainstream high school Biology only discusses the three main ones: Crossing over, independent assortment (which happen during sexual reproduction), and, random genetic mutations.
The 4th one is gene transfer. Species transfer genes between them.
The main source of genetic variation is a large population with a large gene pool.
The two main sources of genetic variation are gene shuffling and mutations. A mutation is a process wherein the structure of a gene is altered.
Other sources of genetic variation in a population include genetic mutations, genetic recombination during sexual reproduction, and gene flow from migration of individuals between populations. These processes can introduce new genetic combinations and alleles into the population, leading to increased genetic diversity.
Genetic variation is important because it allows for diversity within a population, which increases the chances of survival in changing environments. Natural selection acts on this variation, favoring traits that increase an organism's fitness and leading to adaptation and evolution over time.
Genetic variation is necessary for natural selection to occur. This variation provides the raw material for differential survival and reproduction, which drives the process of natural selection. Without genetic variation, there would be no differences for natural selection to act upon.
Natural and Artificial Selection
The two main sources of genetic variation are sexual reproduction, and mutation. Sexual reproduction is more common.

Mutation and recombination are the two main sources of genetic variation in a population. Mutations are changes in the DNA sequence, while recombination occurs through the mixing of genetic material during the formation of gametes.

Loss of genetic variation(:Novanet:)
Genetic variation. Mutations introduce new genetic changes that can be passed on to offspring, while genetic shuffling during sexual reproduction mixes genetic material from two parents to create unique combinations of genes in the offspring.
Some sources of variation include genetic differences, environmental factors, random mutations, and genetic recombination during sexual reproduction. These variations contribute to the diversity of traits and characteristics within a population.
The two main sources of genetic variation are mutations, which are changes in the DNA sequence, and recombination, which occurs during meiosis when genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes. These processes contribute to genetic diversity within populations.
