Crossingover and Gene Mapping
... Ever wonder why, except for identical twins, no two people look exactly alike? While genes determine most of our physical characteristics, the exact combination of genes we inherit, and thus our physical traits, is in part due to a process our chromosomes undergo, known as genetic recombination. Gen ...

Explain – You know that you get half your DNA from your mom and half from your dad. Does this mean you got one-quarter of your DNA from each of your grandparents? Explain – Mitosis cre ...
