Genetic variation is an important factor of sexual


Genetic variation is an important factor of sexual reproduction. One factor involved within sexual reproduction is independent assortment of chromosomes. This process along with random fertilization ensures that you are 1 possible diploid combination out of 64 trillion possible diploid combinations(assume no crossing over). If a mutation allowed a man to reproducibly produce only 256 visible gametes(haploid combinations), how many unique offspring could he produce when mating with a normal female? How about it the female were only able to produce 512(haploid combinations(gametes)?
