There would be less genetic variation in humans
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.
Budding , mitosis and regeneration have no link with genetic variation.All variations in human being and other organisms are produced by MEIOSIS. During meiosis following important processes take place which include 1; crossing over in Prophase I ; Independent assortment of chromosomes and genes during Metaphase I , both of them result in reshufling of genes which is base of variation. Another source of variation is MUTATION.
Meiosis is the process of making gametes (sex cells), so depending on what you mean by your question, either of the following may be correct: 1.) Meiosis will be complete after the individual no longer makes gametes. In humans, females complete meiosis even before they are born because they create all the eggs they will ever have during gestation. In males, this is an ongoing process. 2.) Meiosis may also be considered complete after the products are finished. In humans, females produce 1 egg and 3 polar bodies. In males, 4 sperm are produced.
Meiosis produce haploid cells.So meiosis is used to produce sperms and ova.
Meiosis will produce a total of 4 cells and no, they are genetically unique. In meiosis, a critical step called "crossing over" (or chromosomal crossover) takes place which exchanges genetic material of paired chromosomes. This increases genetics diversity. Also, at the end of meiosis, each daughter cell at the end will have HALF of the original number of chromosomes as the parent cell. That is why in humans, cells have 46 chromosomes but sperm and ovum cell only have 23.
During meiosis I, the process of independent assortment allows for a significant number of genetic combinations. Humans, for example, have 23 pairs of chromosomes, leading to 2^23 (over 8 million) possible combinations of chromosomes in gametes due to independent assortment alone. This does not include additional genetic diversity introduced by crossing over, which further increases the potential combinations. Thus, meiosis I plays a crucial role in producing genetically diverse gametes.
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.
