Question

during which phase of meiosis does crossing over occur? anaphase prophase ii cell death prophase i

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Crossing over occurs in prophase I of meiosis. During this phase, homologous chromosomes pair up (synapsis) and exchange genetic material at points called chiasmata. Anaphase is about chromosome separation. Prophase II is after the first meiotic division and no crossing - over occurs here. Cell death is not a phase of meiosis related to crossing - over.

Answer:

prophase I
