Genetic variability is the main advantage of?
Sexual reproduction
Meiosis and fertilization are important processes because they may most immediately result in?
genetic variation
What is a restriction in genetic variability caused by a drastic reduction in population size?
population bottleneck
What is the ultimate source of genetic variation and the basis for the diversity of life on earth?
Mutations. These have quite a few different causes. Sexual reproduction is a "more recent source" {beginning 600 million years ago} of genetic variability. The process of sharing genetic information, coupled with the random crossing and mixing of genetic information during the creation of a new organism, leads to another source of genetic variability.
The primary biological importance of sexual reproduction in an organism is that it?
i don't know :P <---- This guys an a**hole. Its to promote genetic variability among offspring. (A)

Why synapsis is the key to the diversity that results from meiosis?
The purpose of synapsis is to increase genetic variability
Disadvantages of asexual reproduction are .?
There is no genetic variability since the offsprings are not very different from their parents.
