Question

Describe the process of crossing over and explain how it produces genetic variation.

Accepted Answer

Crossing over:Homologous chromosomes pair up, forming a bivalent Non-sister chromatids become entangled at points called chiasmataThey break off and re-join, sometimes resulting in an exchange of DNA forming recombinant chromatids with different combinations of alleles and therefore genetic variation
