In biology, meiosis (pronounced /maɪˈoʊsɨs/ ) is a process of reductional division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half. In animals, meiosis always results in the formati...

Chromosomal crossover (or crossing over ) is the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes. This often occurs during prophase 1 of meiosis in a process called synapsis. Synapsis b...

Meiosis in Animals ... Chiasmata represent points where earlier (and unseen) nonsister chromatids had swapped sections. The process is called crossing over. It is reciprocal; the segments exchanged by each nonsister chromatid are identical (but may carry different alleles).

Is crossing over a completely random process where any two chromosomes join and exchange segments or does anything facilitate the process? If it is random, can two paternal chromosomes undergo crossing over? ... The Naked Scientists Forum | Life Sciences | Physiology & Medicine | What is "Crossing Over" during meiosis ?
