Fertilization contributes to genetic variability through recombination of gene.
What is Fertilization?
Fertilization is the process in which gametes combines to form a zygote.
During fertilization, gametes combines to produce different phenotypes in the offspring.
The phenotype is dependent on genetic combinations.
What is Recombination?
Recombination is a process of creating new gene combination in the gametes, this occur dues to exchange of genetic material among the gametes during meiosis I.
- Recombination results into different genetic combinations in each gametes leading to genetic variation in a given population.
Therefore, fertilization contributes to observable genetic variations in a population.
