1.	Which one of the following generates new genetic combinations leading to mutationsA. Vegetative reproductionB. ParthenougensisC. Sexual reproductionD. Nuclear polyembryony
Answer» Correct Answer - C The sexual reproduction brings about variation through genetic recombination first of all genetic recombination occurs in non-homologous chromosomes during crossing over of pachytene stage in meiotic cell division. Secondly, the random union of gametes also contributes in forming new combinations of characters. in the formation of progenies with new variations. Vegetative reproduction occurs through vegetative parts of organisms (plants). without fertilisation (e.g.frog).
