Here is the right answer to the crossword clue Process of cell division featured in the NYT puzzle. The correct answer to this clue is MEIOSIS.
The process of cell division referred to by the answer "MEIOSIS" specifically pertains to a type of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms. Meiosis involves two successive divisions of a diploid cell (one that has pairs of chromosomes) to produce four haploid cells (cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell).
Chromosomes condense and pair up with their homologous partner. This pairing is called synapsis, and it forms structures called tetrads. During this phase, crossing over occurs, where genetic material is exchanged between homologous chromosomes, increasing genetic diversity.
