Question

Sexual reproduction is an important piece of natural selection and survival of the fittest. In order for a population to survive over time it is critical that organisms reproduce sexually to ensure
A) immigration.
B) biodiversity.
C) genetic variability.
D) survival of the fittest.

Answer 1

Answer:

Genetic variation is an important force in evolution as it allows natural selection to increase or decrease frequency of alleles already in the population.

Genetic variation can be caused by mutation (which can create entirely new alleles in a population), random mating, random fertilization, and recombination between homologous chromosomes during meiosis (which reshuffles alleles within an organism’s offspring).

Genetic variation is advantageous to a population because it enables some individuals to adapt to the environment while maintaining the survival of the population.
