Answer:

independent assortment occurs in metaphase I and anaphase I

Explanation:

Independent assortment is the development of haphazard combinations of chromosomes in meiosis and of genes on separate pairs of homologous chromosomes through the passage as stated by the laws of probability i.e  one of each diploid pair of homologous chromosomes pairs into each gamete independently of each other pair. This principle describes and demonstrates how different genes independently separate from one another when reproductive cells develops.

Part of the significance of independent assortment is to produce new genetic combinations that increase genetic variations within a population.

To increase the genetic diversity in the offspring.
