Scientists now know that independent assortment of genes occurs  during meiosis in eukaryotes. Meiosis is a form of cell division  that lowers the number of chromosomes in aâ¦ parent cell by half to  make four reproductive cells called gametes.
Each daughter corn cell receives 10 chromosomes made up of a random mixture of maternal and paternal chromosomes. This second mixing of genetic information is called independent assortment. Genetic recombination and independent assortment make it possible for parents to have many offspring who are all different from each other. In the second meiotic division the cell moves directly into prophase II, skipping the interphase replication of DNA. Each corn cell begins the second division with 10 chromosomes.
