Question

There is an inbuilt tendency to variation during reproduction, because of errors in DNA copying and as a result of sexual reproduction.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

Sexual reproduction results in more variation than the asexual reproduction. During sexual reproduction, there are chances of errors occurring during DNA copying. Crossing over also takes place during sexual reproduction. All these ultimately result in the variation. This variation helps survival in species and also supports diversity in the course of evolution.

Thus, the correct answer is option A.
