Crossing over is best described as ***when two homologous chromosomes transfer genetic information in prophase I.*** During this process, homologous chromosomes, which are similar but not identical, exchange segments of DNA, leading to genetic recombination. This is a crucial mechanism for increasing genetic diversity in sexually reproducing organisms.
