True or false: sexual reproduction produces genetic variations because each pair of chromosomes moves independently

Answer: True

Explanation: Reproduction is a process by which an organism produces a new organism of its type. Sexual reproduction is a type of reproduction in which a new organism is produced through the union or fusion of a male and a female gamete. Variation is the differences among individuals of the same species in a population. Every trait is controlled by a pair of gene because each parent contributes only one of the two genes. During fusion of the male and female gametes, the genes move independently leading to different combinations of genes that consequently leads to variations among a population.
