Do only cells that go through sexual reproduction go through meiosis?

No, it only seems that way to people whose knowledge of Biology is confined to humans!
In all plants, for example, meiosis produces spores, which divide a number of times by mitosis to produce a gametophyte. This can be substantial, as in many lower plants, or microscopic, as in flowering plants.
The gametophyte produces gametes (sex cells) by mitosis and differentiation.

What is the function of the cells produced by meiosis?
sexual reproduction
Why do sperm producing cells divided by meiosis?
because meiosis has to do with sexual reproduction
Cells used for sexual reproduction are formed by a process called?
meiosis
Why do cells divide by meiosis?
For sexual reproduction.
What kind of cell does meiosis function in the formation of?
Meiosis functions to create gametes, or sex-cells. These are the cells that are involved in sexual reproduction.
Do mitosis happen in sexual reproduction?
noIt produces identical cells to mother cell. Meiosis is important in sexual reproduction
What is the function of the cells produced by meiosis?
sexual reproduction
Why do sperm producing cells divided by meiosis?
because meiosis has to do with sexual reproduction
What is the reproduction of all body cells called?
mitosis and the sexual reproduction of cells are called meiosis
Why meiosis important in sexual reproduction?
It produces haploid daughter cells.
Cells used for sexual reproduction are formed by a process called?
meiosis
Why do cells divide by meiosis?
For sexual reproduction.
Does meiosis occur in sexual or asexual reproduction?
Meiosis isn't reproduction itself but takes place during sexual reproduction. The function of meiosis is to produce haploid gamete cells that way when fertilization occurs the result are two haploid gametes (half the number of chromosomes) coming together. It occurs only during spermatogenesis or oogenesis, mitosis produces normal somatic cells.
What kind of cell does meiosis function in the formation of?
Meiosis functions to create gametes, or sex-cells. These are the cells that are involved in sexual reproduction.
What is the role of meiosis to sexual reproduction?
Meiosis produces daughter cells with half the genetic material of normal cells. This means that when the gametes from each parent meet, the resulting offspring will once again have the correct number of chromosomes. Meiosis allows half of the chromosomes come from each parent - which is vital for sexual reproduction.
Cell type which undergoes process meiosis?
Germ cells undergo meiosis to form the gametes.
Is sexual reproduction in meiosis or mitosis?
meiosisMeiosis produce haploid cells. Mitosis produce diploid cells
