Which BEST describes how crossing over increases genetic diversity? A Crossing over increases genetic diversity because it results in new combinations of genes on each chromosonth B. Crossing over increases genetic diversity because it prevents genetic mutations from occurring within the genes Crossing over increases genetic diversity because i ensures that offspring receive the dominant alleles for traits. Crossing over increases genetic diversity because it creates an uneven amount of genetic material on the chromatids.

## Step 1Crossing over is a process that occurs during meiosis, a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. This process involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes.## Step 2The exchange of genetic material during crossing over results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome. This means that each chromosome now carries a unique set of genes, which increases the genetic diversity of the offspring.## Step 3The other options provided do not accurately describe the process of crossing over. For example, crossing over does not prevent genetic mutations from occurring within the genes, nor does it ensure that offspring receive the dominant alleles for traits. Additionally, crossing over does not create an uneven amount of genetic material on the chromatids.
