Assertion (A): | Meiosis leads to recombinations of genes. |
Reason (R): | Crossing over occurs in pachytene sub-stage of prophase I of meiosis. |
1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
4. | Both (A) and (R) are false. |
A: | Tendency of parental combinations to remain together is called crossing over. |
R: | Crossing over provides proof in favour of the linear arrangement of genes on chromosomes. |
