Yes. It is called crossing over.
Mitosis is simply cell division. DNA replicates, cell divides, two new daughter cells with identical DNA. Meiosis is exactly like mitosis, except during prophase, it undergoes crossover. This means part of one Chromatid and part of another are swapped, so now the two chromosomes have different parts. It then goes through metaphase, anaphase, and telophase normally, but then goes through Prophase 2 (this time without crossover), metaphase2, Anaphase2, and then Telophase2. This forms a gamete.
Crossing over or chromosomal crossover.
The stage when all the cells show crossover chromosomes is the pachytene stage of meiosis. During this stage, homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange genetic material through a process called recombination or crossing over, which results in the formation of new combinations of genetic information.
When homologous chromosomes crossover, they merge one chromatid with the other. One small part of the chromosome will now be part of the other, and the opposite chromosome will have a part of the other chromosome in place of where it switched it's own to the other. It's a bit confusing, but you can search google images to get visual aid.
They copy their chromosomes so that when they do divide into two different cells each one will have its own set of chromosomes and it couldn't be copied and transferred after divison occured
when two of homologous chromosomes form a tetrad sister chromatids and crossover
mutation means change in genetic structure..where as crossover means interchanging the genetic structure of two or more chromosomes..
When chromosomes crossover the x shaped region created is called a chiasmata. These chiasmatas allow chromosomes to exchange of genetic materials.

When chromosomes cross over. (Chromal Crossover, I believe)
Males have two different chromosomes

If you want to connect two routers with a wire you have use a straight lan cable NOT crossover cable.
