Can you recall meiosis and indicate at what stage a recombinant DNA is made?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Meiosis is a process that involves the reduction in the amount of genetic material. It is two types, namely meiosis I and meiosis II. During the pachytene stage of prophase I, crossing over of chromosomes takes place where the exchange of segments between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes takes place. this results in the formation of recombinant DNA.
