No, most cells undergo mitosis, and if they crossed over, like haploid cells do, we as humas would be very deformed because no cells would have the same genes and such

Where does crossing over occur in the process of mitosis?

Crossing over occurs during the prophase I stage of meiosis, not during mitosis.

Crossing over occurs during the prophase I stage of meiosis, not during mitosis.


Is crossing over a process that occurs during mitosis or meiosis?

Crossing over is a process that occurs during meiosis.


Is crossing over a key process that occurs during both mitosis and meiosis?

Yes, crossing over is a key process that occurs during both mitosis and meiosis.


Does mitosis involve crossing over?

No, mitosis does not involve crossing over. Crossing over occurs during meiosis, not mitosis. Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells with the same genetic information as the parent cell.


In mitosis and meiosis, does crossing over occur during the process of genetic recombination?

Yes, crossing over occurs during the process of genetic recombination in meiosis, but not in mitosis.


In which stage of cell division, mitosis or meiosis, does crossing over occur?

Crossing over occurs during the prophase I stage of meiosis.


What occurs in meiosos but not in mitosis?

When does crossing over happen in mitosis 1?

How does the process of mitosis contribute to genetic variation through the phenomenon of crossing over?

During the process of mitosis, genetic variation is not directly contributed through crossing over. Crossing over occurs during meiosis, not mitosis. In crossing over, homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, leading to genetic variation in offspring. Mitosis, on the other hand, is a cell division process that produces genetically identical daughter cells.


What is the difference between prophase mitosis and prophase meiosis?

In prophase I of meiosis, crossing over of homologous chromosomes occurs. This does not happen in prophase of mitosis.


When somatic cells reproduce by mitosis does crossing over take place?

Yes. However, crossing over occurs much less frequently in somatic cells than in meiotic cells. Evidence of mitotic crossing over is the occurence of twin spots in Drosophila and other organisms.
