1. Even though humans are approximately 99.9% identical in their genetic makeup, an incredible amount of variation is seen among individuals of the species. This genetic variation is greatly influenced by the process of meiosis.

A. Condensation of chromatin during meiosis I

B. Recombination between homologous chromatids during meiosis I

C. Alignment of sister chromatids at the metaphase plate during meiosis II

D. Separation of sister chromatids during meiosis II
