Question

the concept of natural selection is a mechanism of evolution where environmental pressure acts on genetic variation. which process below would not contribute to the genetic variation in a population? a mitotic growth b sexual reproduction c mutations resulting from errors in dna synthesis d crossing over of homologous chromosomes during meiosis

Explanation:

Mitotic growth produces genetically - identical daughter cells. Sexual reproduction combines genetic material from two parents, mutations change the DNA sequence, and crossing - over during meiosis shuffles genetic information, all contributing to genetic variation.

Answer:

A. mitotic growth
