Answer: When the homologous chromosomes form into pairs with prophase I of meiosis I, crossing over to the other side can occur. When the cells divide up into meiosis, and homologous chromosomes, the daughter cells randomly just get distributed. and different chromosomes segregate independently of each other. This information is called independent assortment.
NOTE: THIS IS NOT FOR COPY, THIS IS FOR INFORMATION FOR THE PERSON THAT ASKED THE QUESTION.
homologous chromosomes: Homologous chromosomes are made up of chromosome pairs of approximately the same length, centromere position, and staining pattern, for genes with the same corresponding loci.
prophase I of meiosis I: During prophase I, they coil and become shorter and thicker and visible under the light microscope. The duplicated homologous chromosomes pair, and crossing-over (the physical exchange of chromosome parts) occurs.
Daughter Cells; Either of the two cells formed when a cell undergoes cell division by mitosis. Daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell because they contain the same number and type of chromosomes.
independent assortment.: independent assortment states that the alleles of two (or more) different genes get sorted into gametes independently of one another. In other words, the allele a gamete receives for one gene does not influence the allele received for another gene.
