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 process can recombination through independent assortment and crossing over occur?

Recombination through independent assortment and crossing over can occur during the process of meiosis.


How does homologous recombination differ from crossing over?

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.


Is crossing over unique to meiosis?

Yes. Crossover only occurs in prophase of meiosis I. Becuase it does not occur in mitosis, all the cells in our body are supposed to have the same genetic information (of course, excluding the cases where somatic mutations occur, such as in cancer).


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


Meiosis 1 is the same as what other reproduction process?

Meiosis I is similar to mitosis, as both processes involve the separation of homologous chromosomes. In meiosis I, the genetic material undergoes recombination and crossing over, leading to genetic diversity, which does not occur in mitosis.


Does recombination only occur through single crossing over events?

Yes


What happens in meiosis one that does not occur in meiosis?

the synapsis and crossing over of homologous chromosomes


What term is applied to the exchange of parts that may occur between pairs of chromosomes in the early stages of meiosis?

This process is known as crossing over. Crossing over involves the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis, resulting in genetic variation among offspring.


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

Crossing over occurs during the prophase I stage of meiosis.


Which phase of meiosis do diversification occur?

Diversification occurs during the crossing over phase of meiosis, which is Prophase I. During this phase, chromosomes exchange genetic material, resulting in the recombination of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. This process increases genetic diversity and contributes to the unique combination of traits in offspring.


What phase does meiosis crossing over occur?

prophase 1.
