Answer:

allows the recombination of genetic information

Explanation:

Crossing over is a process that occurs only in meiotic division in sexually reproducing organisms. It is the process whereby the segments of a gene are exchanged between the non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes.

Due to this crossing over process that occurs in prophase I of meiosis, the alleles of a chromosomes are recombined to ensure genetic diversity. Hence, according to this question, crossing over results in additional genetic variation during meiosis because it allows the recombination of genetic information.
