Solution

The process that makes haploid cells is called meiosis. Here are the steps:

  1. Interphase: The DNA in the cell is copied resulting in two identical full sets of chromosomes. Outside of the nucleus are two centrosomes, each containing a pair of centrioles - these structures are critical for the process of cell division.

  2. Prophase I: The chromosomes condense and become visible. Homologous chromosomes pair up and exchange segments in a process called recombination or crossing over.

  3. Metaphase I: The paired chromosomes align at the equator of the cell.

  4. Anaphase I: The pairs
