Crossing over happens in Meiosis 1 only. In Prophase 1 a cells chromatin (chromatin = chromosomes that have not condensed yet) condense and pair up forming homologous chromosomes (paired = XX (2 chromosomes together)). When this happens segments/ alleles of the chromosomes pairing up swap over. This creates genetic diversity as each chromosome is different, it has parts from its pair. This leaves every chromosome unique and individual.

I hope this helps, sorry some of the vocab is rather technical. By the way I would suggest watching the 'Crash Course: Meiosis' on YouTube, this really helped me when I was learning this topic. :D

Crossing over can be expressed in three points:
1. Crossing over is when two chromosomes exchange their genetic materials in a process called synapsis. 2. It occurs in meiosis 1 during prophase 1. 3. One example: Your chromosomes may end up crossing over with wrong chromosomes due to mutation in one of the chromosome or both.

2. true

3. true

Explanation:

1. Annuals are the plants that complete their life cycle in one season or one year. These are the herbaceous plants that grow, flower and die in one season. Examples of annuals are geranium, marigold, etc.  

2. In a flower, the whorl of petals is called corolla while the whorl of the sepal is known as calyx. In flowers, calyx and corolla together make perianth. The calyx is outer to corolla in a perianth.  

3. The fruit is a matured and ripened ovary that provides protection to the seeds present in it. Fruits are formed after fertilization and may contain one or more seeds.

What are the changes that one can expect to observe as a plant tissue culture develops?
ahrayia [7]

The changes that one can expect to observe as a plant tissue culture develops is the development of new shoots and root.

<h3>What is a Culture?</h3>

This refers to the process in which microorganisms, living matter etc are grown in a specially prepared nutrient medium which are made up of different types of compounds.

In the case of a plant tissue culture, there will be new shoot and root formation due to the presence of nutrients in which the plants are exposed to for its growth and survival.

This is therefore makes changes in the shoot and root be the most appropriate choice.
