    In meiosis, where crossing over does occur, the two homologous chromosomes pair up with each other in prophase and exchange segments of their chromatids ... But in mitosis, the function is to divide one cell into two genetically identical cells, so there is no such pairing up and no swapping of chromosomal segments
