- Q36arrow_forwardLearning Task 4. Write Tif the statement is True and F if it is False. 26. Meiosis is required for genetic variation and continuity of all living organisms. 27. Meiosis also plays an important role in the repair of genetic defects in germline cells. 28. Mitosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes. 29. Mitosis also produces genetic variation by way of the process of recombination. 30. Variation is increased even further when two gametes unite during fertilization, thereby creating offspring with unique combinations of DNA.arrow_forwardhelp fill in pleasearrow_forward
