Answer:

D. independent assortment and crossing over.

Explanation: Genetic diversity of a species occurs when crossing over of the chromosomes is done in the process of meiosis. In crossing over, the parts of chromosomes are exchanged between two different chromatids for the production of gametes due to which variation occurs in the organisms. So crossing over is very important for producing genetic variation among species.
