In this video, I explore DNA recombination, a process where DNA strands swap segments, usually between similar sequences on sister chromatids. This swapping creates brand-new genetic combinations. DNA recombination isn't just a biological curiosity; it's crucial for increasing genetic diversity and ensuring the stability of our genome.
