검증된 단계별 안내1
Understand that during meiosis, homologous chromosomes pair up in a process called synapsis.
Recognize that after synapsis, homologous chromosomes can exchange segments of DNA, which increases genetic variation.
Identify the name of this exchange process as 'crossing over', which results in genetic recombination.
Differentiate crossing over from other processes such as transcription (which is RNA synthesis), independent assortment (which is the random distribution of chromosomes), and replication (which is DNA copying).
Conclude that the process where homologous chromosomes exchange DNA segments after synapsis is called crossing over.
