Question

Which claim below accurately explains how the process of meiosis results in genetic variation?

Answer 1

Below are the options:

Having two phases of meiosis allow for more unique cells to be produced.


Meiosis is a form of asexual reproduction which leads to more genetic variation.


Meiosis produces 4 haploid daughter cells which all contain identical DNA segments.


Crossing over during metaphase allows segments of DNA from 2 parents to SWAP and produce non-identical haploid cells.

The answer Meiosis is a form of asexual reproduction which leads to more genetic variation
