The most important significance of meiosis is that:
1. It increases variations in the gene pool of the species that helps in evolution of that species.
2. It causes growth in the multicellular organisms
3. It conserves specific number of chromosomes in each species across generations
4. It is vital for repair and regeneration functions in the living organisms.

Consider the following statements regarding meiosis:
I. At metaphase I the microtubules from the opposite poles of the spindle attach to the pair of homologous chromosomes.
