How do two genes for different traits that are on the same chromosome can fail to be inherited together?

Two genes located on the same chromosome can fail to be inherited together due to a process called recombination or crossing over during meiosis. This occurs when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, resulting in new combinations of alleles. The likelihood of two genes being separated during recombination depends on their physical distance on the chromosome; genes that are farther apart are more likely to be separated than those that are close together. Thus, even though they are on the same chromosome, the genes can assort independently during gamete formation.
