Elucidating Principles of Gene Regulation from Stochastic Models
... The complexity of multicellular organisms arises largely from reusing many of the same genes in numerous combinations, rather than by the introduction of novel genes for each new celltype. Put another way, what makes you human is not so much which genes you have but how you use them. The instruction ...

The process of meiosis - Deans Community High School
... Meiosis enables new combinations of existing alleles of genes to pass to the gamete as a result of crossing over at chiasmata resulting in new combinations of alleles for genes on the same chromosome. This can give 4 genetically different chromatids each of which ends up in a different gamete. Also, ...
