Genetic recombination refers to the process by which two DNA  molecules exchange genetic information. The three types of genetic  recombination are crossing over, conservati â¦ ve site-specific  recombination and transpositional recombination.
This produces a crystal lattice, which is commonly known as 'ice'. Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. In other words, ice takes up about 9% more space than water, so a liter of ice weighs less than a liter water. The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top. One consequence of this is that lakes and rivers freeze from top to bottom, allowing fish to survive even when the surface of a lake has frozen over.
One method to measure the volume of an object that floats in water is to weigh it down with a heavy object. The important thing is to first measure the water level with the heavy object submerged in it, then measure the water level with the heavy object holding the floating object down under the water.
