The illustration below shows a process that occurs during meiosis. paired homologous chromosomes An illustration of paired homologous chromosomes. A B centromere C chiasma Which statement best explains the process that is occurring in the above illustration? D homologous chromosome 1 homologous chromosome 2 During the synthesis phase of the cell cycle, DNA molecules replicate to generate identi- call daughter cells. The spindle apparatus attaches at the chlasma during metaphase of mitosis. During melosis, crossing over leads to recombination of alleles between homologous chromosomes to create genetic variation. Centromeres align specific gene sequences of homologous chromosomes during mitotic divisions.
