Detailed explanation-1: -Recombination in meiosis. Recombination occurs when two molecules of DNA exchange pieces of their genetic material with each other. One of the most notable examples of recombination takes place during meiosis (specifically, during prophase I), when homologous chromosomes line up in pairs and swap segments of DNA.

Detailed explanation-2: -Crossing Over Crossing over, as related to genetics and genomics, refers to the exchange of DNA between paired homologous chromosomes (one from each parent) that occurs during the development of egg and sperm cells (meiosis).

Detailed explanation-3: -In synapsis, the genes on the chromatids of the homologous chromosomes are aligned with each other. The synaptonemal complex also supports the exchange of chromosomal segments between non-sister homologous chromatids in a process called crossing over.

Detailed explanation-4: -Synapsis. Synapsis is the pairing of two homologous chromosomes that occur during meiosis. This takes place during the prophase stage of meiosis I. When homologous chromosomes pair, the homolouges cross over and exchange genetic material at certain points. This process is called crossing over.

Detailed explanation-5: -Crossing over occurs between prophase I and metaphase I and is the process where two homologous non-sister chromatids pair up with each other and exchange different segments of genetic material to form two recombinant chromosome sister chromatids.
