Summary Introduction

To determine:

The two processes which take place during meiosis one that results in creating genetic variation among gametes.

Concept introduction:

Meiosis represents a type of cell division in which a single cell divides two times to produce four daughter cells. These daughter cells contain half the original amount of genetic information of the parent cell. In meiosis one, the homologous chromosomes exchange genetic material and form a recombinant chromosome. This recombinant chromosome results in genetic diversity among gametes.
