The product of meiosis I is two haploid cells, each containing half the number of chromosomes as the original diploid cell. These cells are genetically distinct due to the processes of crossing over and independent assortment that occur during prophase I and metaphase I. Meiosis I separates homologous chromosomes, resulting in the reduction of chromosome number while increasing genetic diversity.
