Variation and evolution • New genetic combinations
are made as a result of meiosis and fertilisation, giving rise to unexpected variations.
Variation from meiosis: • crossing over • random assortment • non-disjunction.
• Differences between members of a species is called variation
• When 2 gametes fertilise the resulting cell has different genes than that of either parent
• Chromosomes exist in homologous pairs – one from male parent one from female parent
• During first meiotic division the homologous pairs separate randomly during first division chromosomes get tangled – crossing over
• Chromatids break and reattach – new combination = recombination
• In the second division one or more of the chromatids may fail to separate – non-disjunction.
• Powerpoint – Variation from meiosis – keywords and diagrams
• Video crossing over • Draw diagram to show crossing

disjunction, trisomy and monosomy
