chromosomal allocation in meiosis
How much do we understand about chromosomal allocation/recombination in meiosis? Is it believed to be a purely random process? Or is it a highly regulated complex process?
adaptive mutations
Would it not be wonderful if mutations are not random but purposful as the DNA has been touched by new environmental demands?
Just like adaptive mutations seen in hungry E. Coli.
