Synapsing occurs during Prophase 1, it is when the homologs line up beside each other and form a zipper-like connection between each other. This zipper-like connection is called a "chiasmata." During synapsing "crossing over" can occur. Crossing over is when the chromosomes overlap one another at a certain point, the chromosomes will then exchange a certain part of their arm with the other chromosome's arm. This happens differently everytime, so increasing the diversity of the offspring. Hopefully, this is not too confusing. Once you see a diagram illustrating crossing over, it is really rather simple to understand. Have fun learning!
