Please explain why brothers/sisters are genetically different from one another and from their parents based on meiosis. (Hint: How does meiosis generate genetic variability)

Explanation / Answer

ans3) yes the answer which you have mentioned are correct.

ans 4) brothers and sisters are geneticallydifferent because everyone has 2 copies of most of their genes and when parents pass the genes to their offsprings then either of the two copies of the genes can be transferred and that is why each offspring is genetically different.

In Meiosis, each new cell ends up with 23. for each of the 23 pairs, one of the two goes into the sperm or the egg, the choice of which pair of chromosome os totally random.

During meiosis , each pair of chromosome mixes with each other to create two new chromosomes and this process is called recombination.
