Do you understand the numbers you just presented? Type of reproduction that leads to NO variation of traits Causes of genetic variation Opinions, beliefs, what I feel is the answer Differences among individuals in the composition of their genes or other DNA segments When asked a factual question these are the three things you must include to answer the question in science Type of reproduction that leads to variation of traits A change in a gene/allele base pair that causes a new allele to be formed that can be passed to the offspring A chart that shows all the possible combinations of alleles that can result from a genetic cross of 2 parents
