Verified step by step guidance

Understand the key genetic processes listed: Translation, Transcription, DNA replication, and Recombination during meiosis.

Recall that Translation is the process of synthesizing proteins from mRNA and does not change gene combinations.

Recall that Transcription is the process of copying DNA into RNA and also does not create new gene combinations.

Recall that DNA replication is the process of copying the entire DNA before cell division, maintaining the same gene sequences without creating new combinations.

Focus on Recombination during meiosis, which involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, leading to novel combinations of genes in gametes.
