There does not seem to be much difference. Recombination introduces genetic diversity. Single Crossing over results in genetic recombination. Double crossovers may or may not result in genetic recombination.

∙ 11y agoCrossing over occur in meiosis 1 when the homologous pair exchange information. Recombination occur in meiosis 2 and mitosis when the chromosome are separated randomly during anaphase 2 for meiosis and anaphase 1 for mitosis. This cause genetics variation

∙ 11y agoHomologous recombination is a process in genetics by which the nucleotide sequences are exchanged between two similar molecules of DNA. This recombination is used by cells to repair any harmful damages that occur in both the strands of DNA.
Homologous recombination also produces new combinations of DNA during meiosis.
Crossing over is a process in genetics by which two chromosomes of a homologous pair exchange equal segments between each other. This process occurs during the first stage of meiosis.

What is the exchange of a corresponding segment between homologous chromosomes?
It would appear you are speaking of crossing over which takes place in Prophase I of meiosis.
What happens to each pair of duplicated homologous chromosomes during meiosis 1?
pairing of homologous chromosomes and recombination of genetic material takes place
How are crossing over and recombination related?
Genetic recombination occurs during meiosis cell division. As genes cross over during this process, scientists track the genes to study their linkage.
When do stages of meiosis recombination or crossing over occur?
Crossing over occurs during Prophase I.
What happens during crossing-over?
Crossing over is the process in which babies are made.
Explain the exchange of chromosome segments between chromatids of homologous or non-homologous chromosomes?
a. crossing over b. independent assortment or c. random fertilization
What is the process whereby genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes during synopsis of the first meiotic division?
Crossing over or homologous recombination
What is the exchange of a corresponding segment between homologous chromosomes?
It would appear you are speaking of crossing over which takes place in Prophase I of meiosis.
How does crossing over make gene mapping possible?
When genes are on the same chromosome but very far apart, they assort independently due to crossing over (homologous recombination). This is a process that happens at the very beginning of meiosis, in which homologous chromosomes randomly exchange matching fragments.
What happens to each pair of duplicated homologous chromosomes during meiosis 1?
pairing of homologous chromosomes and recombination of genetic material takes place
What is the exchange of genes between homologous pairs of chromosomes?
homologous chromosomes exchange alleles during crossing over.
How are crossing over and recombination related?
Genetic recombination occurs during meiosis cell division. As genes cross over during this process, scientists track the genes to study their linkage.
When do stages of meiosis recombination or crossing over occur?
Crossing over occurs during Prophase I.
What is a sentence for crossing over?
Crossing over is the exchanging of genes in a homologous pair.
What is a sentence for crossing-over?
Crossing over is the exchanging of genes in a homologous pair.
What happens during crossing-over?
Crossing over is the process in which babies are made.
Is re-assortment of a chromosomes can occur during meiosis by crossing over of non-sister chromatin's or by independent segregation of homologous chromosomes true or false?
true the assortment is called genetic recombination
