I know that they don't happen in mitosis, and crossing over doesnt happen because mitosis is used for cell duplication, so they want exact duplicates therefore no genes are crossed over. I believe that answers the question for crossing over. what about independent assortment? why doesnt it happen in mitosis?

there's no trait to be inherited from mom/dad during mitosis
