Genetic variation can occur during meiosis because of the process of ________

1.crossing over

2.cell division

3.fertilization

Respuesta :

Answer:

crossing over

Explanation:

During prophase of meiosis I, the double-chromatid homologous pairs of chromosomes cross over with each other and often exchange chromosome segments. This recombination creates genetic diversity by allowing genes from each parent to intermix, resulting in chromosomes with a different genetic complement.
