Meiotic division is important because
# it allows genetic recombination
It allows variation in the progeny
It allows variation in the coming generation
The point of contact between the two homologous chromosome is called chiasmata.

CHIASMATA:-in genetics, the points at which members of a chromosome pair are in contact during the prophase of meiosis andbecause of which recombination, or crossing over, occurs on separation.
Importance of meiotic division:-
It is of great importance, because it creates genetic diversity in the population. Meiosis is a process of gamete formation in which diploid germ-line cells, i.e., the cells that are set aside early in animal development for sexual reproduction, yield four genetically different haploid cells.
