What is independent assortment during meiosis 1? if two individuals mate, and each is capable of producing over 8 million potential gametes, the randorm chance of any one sperm and egg coming together is a product of these two probabilities - some 70 trillion different combinations of chromosomes in a potential offspring O a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genefic information O homologous pairs of chromosomes line up in random orientations at the middle of the cell as they prepare to separate O swapping of genetic material
