The image represents a pair of replicated chromosomes that are about to under meiosis and produce gametes for sexual
reproduction. During meiosis, a process called crossing over can occur. During crossing over, a section of like chromosomes
exchanges segments. This promotes genetic variation in life forms. Imagine that meiosis proceeds and gametes are produced.
Based on the laws of inheritance, what is the probability that a gamete will end up with a mutated chromosome to be passed on to
offspring?
