Why is there variation in new organisms formed from the joining of two reproductive cells?
Answer (2)
when two reproductive cells join together they simply cross over their chromatids exchanging characteristics so new individual has the characters of both mother and father...
Variation in new organisms occurs due to genetic recombination during meiosis, independent assortment of chromosomes, and the random nature of fertilization. These processes create unique combinations of genes that result in diverse traits in offspring. Additionally, mutations can introduce further diversity within a population.
