Question

Variations during mutations of meiotic recombinations are

• A. Random and directionless
• B. Random and directional
• C. Random and small
• D. Random, small and directional

Answer 1

The correct option is A Random and directionless

Hugo de Vries $\left(1901\right)$ put forward a theory of evolution, called mutation theory. The theory states that evolution is a jerky process where new varieties and species are formed by mutations (discontinuous variations) that function as raw material of evolution. Mutations appear all of a sudden. They become operational immediately. Mutations appear in all conceivable directions.

So, the correct answer is 'Random and directionless'.
