Crossing over recombines linked genes by exchanging genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis. Unlinked genes are not affected by crossing over as they are located on different chromosomes and segregate independently during meiosis.
When genes are linked, they do not assort independently during meiosis. This means that they do not segregate into gametes independently of each other, which can result in different patterns of inheritance compared to unlinked genes.
Genes that are physically close together on a chromosome tend to stay together during crossing-over, while genes that are far apart are more likely to be separated. This is because crossing-over involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, and the likelihood of crossover is influenced by the distance between genes on the chromosome.
Crossing over occurs. During crossing over, homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, leading to the recombination of linked genes and the potential for them to be separated and inherited independently.
Two genes on the same chromosome can still assort independently if they are far enough apart from each other. During meiosis, crossing over between homologous chromosomes can occur, leading to the exchange of genetic material between the two genes. As a result, the alleles of the two genes can recombine and assort independently during meiosis, leading to new combinations of alleles in the offspring.
If crossing over didn't happen during meiosis in humans, the haploid daughter cells would all have the same genes. The crossing over creates variation and causes each daughter cell to have slightly different genes.
Linked genes are located close together on the same chromosome and tend to be inherited together. Unlinked genes are located on different chromosomes or are far apart on the same chromosome and are inherited independently. Crossing over during meiosis can break the linkage between linked genes, allowing for new combinations of alleles to be formed.
crossing over can unlink genes because when crossing over occurs it a portion of one chromosome is replaced by a region of a homologous chromosome and during this the alleles that were presently on that linked gene could possibly be separated

Crossing over is the exchanging of genes in a homologous pair.
Crossing over is the exchanging of genes in a homologous pair.
crossing over allows new genes to be made by the crossing over itself or by mutations that occur in the genes as crossing over occurs. since the phenotype is the physical appearance of the gene, the crossing over can change the genotype which can change the phenotype.
Genes that are physically close together on a chromosome tend to stay together during crossing-over, while genes that are far apart are more likely to be separated. This is because crossing-over involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes, and the likelihood of crossover is influenced by the distance between genes on the chromosome.
When the phenotype is determined by more than two unlinked loci, it is referred to as polygenic inheritance. This means that multiple genes at different loci contribute to the expression of a particular trait or phenotype.
its simple the crossing over of genes ha a location looc for a chromosomes with a different chromatid you have the location
Crossing over can effect on more then one gene i.e. at least two as in crossing over the genes of homologus chromatin get interchanged so it effect at least two genes and can effect or change more then two genes depend upon the linking and crossing over capability
When crossing over occurs during meiosis, the genes on homologous chromosomes can exchange segments, leading to genetic recombination and variations in offspring. This results in a shuffled arrangement of genes on the chromosomes of gamete cells. In contrast, when crossing over does not occur, the genes on homologous chromosomes remain in their original positions, resulting in no genetic recombination and less variation in offspring.
