The process of ________ involves two successive generations of cell divisions that result in four cells with twenty-three chromosomes each.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The process described involves two successive divisions, which is characteristic of meiosis, not mitosis. Additionally, the resulting cells have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell, which is also a characteristic of meiosis. Crossing over refers to the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis, but it is not the name of the overall process. Codominance refers to a genetic trait where neither allele is completely dominant or recessive, but rather both are expressed. It is not related to the process described in the question.
