Options:
Answer:
C
Solution:
A mutation refers to a change in the nucleotide sequence of a short region of DNA. On the other hand, recombination reconstructs a part of the genome. The main difference between mutation and recombination is that mutation brings a small-scale rearrangement in the genome whereas recombination brings a large-scale rearrangement in the genome. Both are responsible for evolution.
