Decussation
Similarly, the anatomical term chiasma is named after the Greek uppercase 'Χ' (chi). In neuroanatomy, the term chiasma is reserved for crossing of- or within nerves such as in the optic chiasm. wikipedia.org

What parts of the visual system could be responsible for a fixed, monocular scotoma? Light enters the cornea, crosses the lens, hits the retina. Electric sinal travels from retina through the optic nerve, reaches the ...
Yes. You're right. A scotoma only affecting one eye (i.e., one that is not perceived when one eye is closed) is diagnostic of a lesion upstream from the optic chiasm. See Brust's Practice of Neural Science, Fig. 3-2. The figure demonstrates a full cut, with complete blindness in one eye, but the pri...

Synapsis
This exchange produces a chiasma, a region that is shaped like an X, where the two chromosomes are physically joined. At least one chiasma per chromosome often appears to be necessary to stabilise bivalents along the metaphase plate during separation. wikipedia.org

Meiomitosis
Meiotic proteins drive double stranded DNA breaks, chiasma formation, sister chromatid adhesion and rearrange the spindle apparatus.   The collision of mitosis and meiosis (first division) pathways could cause abnormal chiasma formation, abnormal cohesion expression, and mitotic/meiotic wikipedia.org
