NGSS.HS-LS3-2

In meiosis, crossing over occurs in prophase 1. What is the significance of this event?

• This process ensures that chromosomes are evenly divided into daughter cells.

• This process can lead to genetic variation in daughter cells.

• This process can create gaps in the chromosome DNA for RNA to bind.

• This process allows for spindles to connect to the chromosomes in order to pull chromosomes apart.
