The answer is
Recombination is an exchange between homologous chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 from mom x chr 1 from dad). Since it usually happens during meiosis, these strands are later separated. Recombination can be unequal or equal, but it's usually equal, and unequal crossovers are generally quite small (but a common source of addition/deletion).
Reciprocal translocation refers to an exchange between different chromosomes (e.g. chr 1 x chr 2). It is considered a large scale mutation (resulting in a large addition to one chromosome, and a large deletion in another).
<u>Answer:</u>
<em>The biologists clarify these similarities as a homologous pair. This is based on the principle of convergent evolution.</em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
<em>Convergent evolution</em> is understood by the phenomenon of development of similar organs in different species in different period. Those<em> homologous pair </em>have same structure but can have different function in the different <em>species of organism. </em>
The bone of human arms, wings of the bat and dolphin flippers contain many of same bones which have developed from the same embryo tissue but the function for each is <em>different in different species.</em>
