The process of meiosis increases genetic variation when genetic information is exchanged during crossing-over and when alleles are independently and randomly assorted into daughter cells. which of the following processes also contributes to genetic variation?

When homologous chromosomes form pairs during prophase I of meiosis I, crossing-over can occur. It results in new combinations of genes on each chromosome. When cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed during anaphase I, separating and segregating independently of each other
