Crossing over is the process in whichMultiple choice question.homologous chromosomes align randomly along the metaphase plate.sister chromatids are separated to opposite poles of the cell.sister chromatids align singly along the metaphase plate.homologous chromosomes physically exchange pieces.

Which of the following processes occurs when homologous chromosomes cross over?Group of answer choicesCorresponding segments of sister chromatids are exchanged.Two sister chromatids get tangled, resulting in one re-sequencing its DNA.Two sister chromatids exchange identical pieces of DNA.Corresponding segments of nonsister chromatids are exchanged.Maternal alleles are “corrected” to be like paternal alleles and vice versa.Next
