CHAPTER 13 MEIOSIS AND SEXUAL LIFE CYCLES
... Let’s discuss the role of meiosis in the human life cycle. The human life cycle begins when a haploid sperm cell fuses with a haploid ovum. These cells fuse (syngamy), resulting in fertilization. The fertilized egg (zygote) is diploid because it contains two haploid sets of chromosomes bearin ...

Gene conversion and recombination Crossing over is due to many (at least 11) different genes (Paques and Haber, 1999), the products of which are necessary in the different steps of the process. These genes have also other functions, especially for DNA repair, indeed the molecular machinery is alm ...
