Question

which process of genetic recombination involves genes from both parents?
crossing over
independent assortment
fertilization
tetrad formation

Explanation:

Crossing - over occurs during meiosis when homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material, combining genes from both parents. Independent assortment is about the random alignment of chromosomes during meiosis and doesn't directly combine genes from both parents in the same way. Fertilization combines gametes but is not a genetic - recombination process within a single cell. Tetrad formation is a step in meiosis but not the process that combines parental genes.

Answer:

A. crossing over
