MourningBands added 2 new photos. Honoring Those that Answered the Call. When people answer the call of public service with their lives, as far as I'm concerned, that's the gold standard. That was my thought when I brought these pieces together, and my thought each and every time one of them falls in the line of duty.
Best Answer: A mutation is a change in DNA. Genetic recombination can apply to two things: crossing-over between homologous chromosomes or recombining of traits when gametes fuse during fertilization. They all contribute to evolution because they result in a new organism with a new combination of characteristics. This new combination of characteristics is subjected to natural selection.
Genetic recombination is a complex process that involves alignment of two homologous DNA strands, precise breakage of each strand, equal exchange of DNA segments between the two strands, and sealing of the resultant recombined DNA molecules through the action of enzymes called ligases.hen recombination occurs during meiosis, the cell's homologous chromosomes line up extremely close to one another. Then, the DNA strand within each chromosome breaks in the exact same location, leaving two free ends.
