Asexual reproduction in animals is usually by parthenogenisis. In such cases, the egg is usually produced without going through meiosis. The result may be female or male, depending on how sexuality is determined in the specific species. The species in which parthenogenisis has been observed include a variety of insects, fish, reptiles, birds and mammals. It can be induced artificially, and all cases observed in mammals have been artificial.

Why sexual reproduction requires meiosis?
The process of meiosis results in the production of gametes in which the number of chromosomes is reduced by half. During sygamy, two gametes fuse to form a new cell, and the number of chromosomes is restored to the full amount. Therefore, by coupling meiosis and syngamy, the organism ensures that the proper number of chromosomes will be maintained.
What is the process by which cells reproduce?
Somatic (Body) Cells-Mitosis Gametes-Meiosis Mitosis is the process by which cells reproduce by dividing into identical daughter cells. In addition to normal body cells, mitosis is also how cancer cells divide.
What kind of cells reproduce through the process of meiosis?
germ cells or u can say non somatic cells......!
Do prokaryotic organisms undergo meiosis?
It must or cells would not be able to reproduce. Eukaryotic cells replicate by mitosis. Prokaryotic cells replicate via binary fission.
During alternation of generations cells reproduce by what?
both meiosis and mitosis.
How do eukaryotes cells reproduce?
Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
How do cells make or reproduce cells?
Mitosis or meiosis.
What is a haiku for meiosis?
Animals and plants, divide cells to reproduce, this is meiosis.
What is the importance of mitosis and meiosis in your body?
reproduce cells.
Why do cell enter into meiosis?
Cells enter mitosis to reproduce and grow more cells.
What are two differences between mitosis and meiosis?
1: Mitosis and Meiosis are the two ways by which cells reproduce.2: Mitosis and meiosis produce fresh new cells based on their parent cells' genes.
What is the process by which primitive sex cells reproduce in the process of becoming gametes?
Meiosis
How do prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide?
Prokaryotic cells reproduce and divide using binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. It just depends on the species of cell.
How are mitosis and meiosis simlair?
Meiosis and Mitosis are both the division of something. Meiosis is the division of chromosomes and Mitosis is the division of cells. They both occur in the cell cycle. Meiosis creates 4 daughter cells and Mitosis creates two complete cells.
Why daughter cells produced as a result of mitosis and meiosis are called as daughter cells and not son cells?
Because women reproduce and when the daughter grows into a big cell, then it will reproduce too.

What are the two methods the body used to reproduce cells?
Mitosis(asexual) and Meiosis(sexual)
