What occurs in meiosis but NOT in mitosis?

• chromosome replication

• the joining of homologous chromosomes and crossing over.

• production of daughter cells

• alignment of chromosomes along the metaphase plate (middle)

During meiosis, homologous chromosomes can exchange DNA in a process known as -

• crossing over

• replication

• cytokinesis

• internal fertilization
