Question

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE DIVERSITY IN TODAY'S MULTIRACIAL OFFSPRING?

Answer 1

Genetic diversity in humans mainly due to meiosis during gamete formation and crossing over and rtecombination events taking place in the genetic material. The crossing over and recombination are always advantageous as they result in offspring with genetic diversity compared to their parents. Marriage and sexual relation between people belonging to same race or within same population are leading to wide variety of genetic disorders and in healthy individuals, the offspring exhibit normal height and cognitive abilities. These trtaits are highly favored in offspring produced parents belonging to different races or communities or countries. Children resulted from interracial marriages are taller, smarter and intelligent with high cognitive abilities. The interraciasl marriages in an aspect contribute for more genetic diversity and more over may have a chance of reduced incidence of some types of genetic disorders. Therefore, at present scenario, high thriving chances and high probability and success rate can be observed in multiracial offspring and these aspects are proven by some reasearch studies also.
