Meiosis is the specialized cell division that generates haploid gametes and is therefore essential for sexual reproduction. This SnapShot encompasses key events taking place during prophase I of meiosis that are required for achieving proper chromosome segregation and highlights how these are both conserved and diverged throughout five different species.
