Choose the event of cell cycle which shows the importance of synaps is and the formation of chiasmata.

Question

Choose the event of cell cycle which shows the importance of synaps is and the formation of chiasmata. (A) An increase in the variation of progeny occurs (B) Reciprocal exchange of chromosomal sections occurs (C) The DNA on homologous chromo somes mix (D) All of the above

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

Synapsis is the pairing of homologous chromosomes during meiosis. While autosomes undergo synapsis during meiosis, sex chromosomes often remain unpaired. A consequence of recombinant synapsis is to increase genetic variability within both the off springs and population,
