    The probability is 1/16 that a gamete will receive only paternal chromosomes. In life cycles that alternate between haploid and diploid stages, fertilization doubles the number of chromosomes per cell, The pairing of chromosomes along their lengths, which is essential for crossing over is referred to as synapsis
