- Non-homologous chromosomes
- Autosomes
- Centrosomes

The chromosomes which have similar length.
The correct answer is: Homologous chromosomes
- Crossing over occurs between homologous chromosomes.
- Homologous chromosomes have similar length and structure.
- The locus of the same gene will also be same for the pair of homologous chromosomes.
- Crossing over results in exchange of genetic segments between the homologous chromosomes resulting in a hybrid chromosome.
