Using the longer chromosomal pair when modeling crossing-over helps the observer's see the pattern in a spread-out example.

Answer;

The reason is because using a longer chromosome pair would help the learner to see the pattern in the spread out

Explanation;

  • Cross-over is the process that takes place in meiosis process of cell division, where a cell in the gonads divides in two phases to yield four daughter cells that have half the genetic composition as the parent cell.
  • Cross-over occurs in prophase I of meiosis I, where non-sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes joins at a point called chiasmata and exchanges the segment of chromatids, this ensures genetic variation among organism.
  • Using longer chromosome to show the model of cross-over ensures that the pattern in the spread out is clearly visible to the learner.
