Crossing over between two chromosomes

Answer:

Crossing-over

Explanation:

During Prophase I, which is the first division stage of meiosis I, homologous chromosomes pair up with each chromosome aligning with its homologue partner to form a TETRAD structure. At this stage, segments of each homologous chromosome break and get refixed interchangeably i.e trade parts. This process is called Crossing-over or RECOMBINATION

Crossing-over is the process whereby two chromosomes of a homologous pair (non-sister chromatids) exchange equal segments with each other to form two recombinant chromosomes.

Crossing-over accounts for genetic variation due to the swapping of genetic material. Some of the daughter cells receive daughter chromosomes with recombined alleles. Due to this genetic recombination, the offspring have a different set of alleles and genes than their parents do.

The degree to which chromatin is compacted greatly affects its accessability for ____________ , and thus, gene expression.

iVinArrow [24]

The degree to which chromatin is compacted greatly affects its accessibility for transcription, and thus, gene expression.

<h3>What is Transcription?</h3>

This is the process which involves copying a segment of DNA into RNA in organisms.

When chromatin is condensed, DNA becomes less accessible for transcription factors and vice versa which was why it was chosen as the most appropriate choice.
