Sexual reproduction results in an increase in genetic diversity because:

A. during prophase I, genes that are paternally and maternally derived are recombined on the chromosomes so that the gametes have chromosomes that are different from the parents' chromosomes. B. during metaphase I, the bivalents line up in a random orientation so that gametes inherit a random set of maternally and paternally derived chromosomes. C. during fertilization, the gametes that fuse are random so that a large number of chromosomal combinations are possible in the new organism. D. of both recombination during prophase I and random orientation of bivalents during metaphase I. E. All of these choices are correct.
