    6. Briefly describe the two meiotic events that contribute to genetic diversity in a population. Each gamete (sex cell) is unique due to a process during meiosis called cross-over which (simplified) swaps around some genes to create unique chromosome combinations. meiosis helps to create a population that is not only physically and genetically different but also one, which is perfectly fit to survive.…
