Question

In what stage are meiosis is crossing over likely to occur
1prophase 1
2 maetaphase 1
3 anaphase 2
4 prophase 2

Answer 1

1. interphase
2. prophase
3. metaphase
4. anaphase
5. telaphase

This is the process of a cell splitting in order, from start to finish.
Do you have a guess yet?

Answer 2

but what does it mean by meiosis is crossing over likely to occur i know the process but i no idea what it means by it it doses not help it is Monday.

Answer 3

An important fundamental of genetics is the idea of independent assortment. This states that genes are inherited independently of one another. Imagine an individual has two different alleles (versions of a gene) for eye color (blue and brown) and two different alleles for hair color (blonde and black). If a gamete produced by that individual contains the blue eye color allele it is has an equally good chance of containing the blonde or the black hair color allele. This can be true even if both genes are on the same chromosome. Chromosomes segregate during Meiosis I and you might expect that all genes on a chromosome would be inherited as a unit. However, during prophase I homologous chromosomes pair up and become attached to one another. At this time, crossing over moves sections of DNA between homologous chromosomes and allows for independent assortment.
