When crossing over occurs, part of a chromatid on one chromosome breaks off and switches positions with the matching portion of a chromatid on the homologous chromosome. How does crossing over affect the possible genetic combinations in the offspring formed from these gametes?

crossing over is the exchange of genetic material between human chromosomes. it result in New combination of genes on each chromosome .IT results in damage that had unique combination of chromosomes. in sexual reproduction to gamates unite to produce an offspring.

step 1: initiation

initiation is the beginning of transcription. it occurs when the enzyme rna polymerase binds to a region of a gene called the promoter. this signals the dna to unwind so the enzyme can ‘‘read’’ the bases in one of the dna strands. the enzyme is now ready to make a strand of mrna with a complementary sequence of bases.

step 2: elongation

elongation is the addition of nucleotides to the mrna strand. rna polymerase reads the unwound dna strand and builds the mrna molecule, using complementary base pairs. there is a brief time during this process when the newly formed rna is bound to the unwound dna. during this process, an adenine (a) in the dna binds to an uracil (u) in the rna.

step 3: termination

termination is the ending of transcription, and occurs when rna polymerase crosses a stop (termination) sequence in the gene. the mrna strand is complete, and it detaches from dna.
