The wonderful thing about meiosis is that all the organisms that reproduce in this manor or unique in some way. The reason for this is that in prophase 1 of meiosis the chromosomes cross over. when they cross over they exchange genetic material, which leads to different combinations in your DNA.

The main concept is called genetic recombination, and the reason it is important is that it leads to more genetic diversity and faster adaptions to changes in the external environment.
