Mitosis creates two identical cells that both have the same DNA. How is meiosis different? Why is the DNA of the resulting cells not identical to the original?

I can explain how meiosis aids in the growth and development of organisms by creating a model of cell division.

Write a description of each step next to the visual. Include detail and scientific vocabulary including: meiosis, prophase, metaphase, gamete, centrosome, spindle fibers, daughter cells, and crossing-over.
