Answer :

1. crossing over allows for genetic recombination
2. the haploid nature means that every daughter cell will most likely be different, even not considering crossing over

Answer;

-Crossing over and random independent assortment.

The two events that increase the genetic diversity of the daughter cells produced are crossing over and random independent assortment.

Explanation;

-During prophase of meiosis I, the double-chromatid homologous pairs of chromosomes cross over with each other and often exchange chromosome segments, which resulting to recombination that creates genetic diversity by allowing genes from each parent to intermix, resulting in chromosomes with a different genetic complement.

-Additionally, when cells divide during meiosis, homologous chromosomes are randomly distributed during anaphase I, separating and segregating independently of each other, this results in gametes having unique combinations of chromosomes.
