DNA is copied
The tetrads are pulled apart.
Mitosis does its crossing over in prophase
Another way to increase genetic diversity is the process referred to as anaphase one. The is the third stage of meiosis, which is where chromosomes are loosened.
Meiosis 1
Meiosis 1: Prophase 1, Metaphase1, Anaphase 1, Telophase 1. Meiosis 2: Prophase 1, Metaphase 2, Anaphase 2, Telophase 2. Makes 4 daughter cells that contain 4 chromosomes each.

Before Meiosis 2, the cell must first go through Meiosis 1. This is when the cell splits into two cells, each with two chromosomes.
The tetrads are pulled apart.
Down syndrome (trisomy 21) occurs when a gamete carrying an extra copy of chromosome 21 is involved in a fertilization event.The gamete (whether sperm or oocyte) has an extra copy of chromosome 21 because of something called NONDISJUNCTION. This happens when a chromosome gets pulled to the wrong daughter cell.This can happen either in meiosis I or meiosis II.If nondisjunction happens in meiosis I, 2 gametes will be n+1 (have the extra copy of 21) and the other 2 gametes will be n-1 (will have NO copy of 21)If nondisjunction happens in meiosis II, 2 gametes will be normal, one will be n+1 and one will be n-1.
