Crossing over creates

genetic variation (differences)

Which of the following best describes meiosis?

It is only half of the amount of DNA found in the parent.

It is a mix of the parent's DNA.

It has some similarities and some differences.

What is genetic continuity?

The genetic information of the parent cell and daughter cells are identical
