During gamete production, the genetic information within the cells is duplicated and exchanged prior to forming the gamete cells. What is the benefit to the species to have this genetic exchange?

A) Genetic exchange increases variation among offspring. B) The organisms created from this genetic exchange will be identical to one of the parents that participates in reproduction. C) The DNA produced as a result of genetic exchange will have identical copies of the same genes, increasing the likelihood that more offspring will be produced. D) The genetic information exchanged is the cause of mutations, which are always necessary for the species' survival.
