yes, generally it does but does he opposite in animals
the procces of meiosis happends the same way in humans as in fruit flies.
Normally the genes on a chromosome are inherited as a complete set. If you get that chromosome you get all the genes on it. In the process of crossing over similar sections of DNA are swapped from one chromosome to another. This means that different pairings of genes will be inherited together going forward.
If the human population was reduced to a very small number of interbreeding individual then this small population, denied outbreeding, would have very little genetic variation. Humans, who went through a bottleneck event about 70,000 years ago, are considered a " small " species because they have little genetic variation in comparison to many other species. Google cheetah to see how this concept works.
no men are not slaves of science and technology we cant just look past it because we are used to having it. If you were to take all technology on earth away what would happen? nearly all humans would go crazy!
If crossing over didn't happen during meiosis in humans, the haploid daughter cells would all have the same genes. The crossing over creates variation and causes each daughter cell to have slightly different genes.

meiosis... for example.. crossing over
There would be less genetic variation in humans
No, crossing over is a normal genetic process that occurs during meiosis when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material. Chromosomal abnormalities are structural or numerical changes to the chromosomes that can result in genetic disorders.
Meiosis is responsible for most genotypic and phenotypic variation among humans because it produces haploid gametes with unique combinations of parental genes through crossing over and independent assortment during prophase I.
Organisms complete meiosis during the formation of gametes, which are specialized cells involved in sexual reproduction. In humans, meiosis occurs during the formation of eggs in females and sperm in males.
Meiosis produce haploid cells.So meiosis is used to produce sperms and ova.
Meiosis produces four daughter cells, each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. These daughter cells are not genetically identical due to crossing over and random assortment of chromosomes during meiosis I.
Meiosis produces daughter cells with half as many chromosomes as the parent cell. This means that because a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes, a gamete (produced through meiosis) will only contain 23 chromosomes.
Meiosis typically occurs during the formation of reproductive cells (eggs and sperm) in organisms for sexual reproduction. In humans, meiosis happens during the formation of eggs (in females) and sperm (in males) during gametogenesis.
