Cause body cells have twice the chromosomes a sex cell has
Body cells have 46 chromosomes and sex cells have 23 chromosomes.
Sex cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes than body cells. In humans that is 23.
Body cells. Meiosis deals with sex cells
I think it's that first of all, sex cells undergo meiosis 1 and 2. None of the others do.

Meiosis is responsible for dividing sex cells (sperm and egg cells) into four non-identical haploid cells. It is not involved in dividing body cells, which go through mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body.
Either sex cells or body cells. Sex cells perform mieosis, and body cels perform mitosis.
The body contains various types of cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, nerve cells, muscle cells, and skin cells, among others. These cells perform different functions and are essential for the body's overall health and functioning.
Body cells or somatic cells have a full number of chromosomes while sex cells have one half the number.
Sex cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes of a normal cell (23)
Sex cells.
Sex cells (sperm and egg) differ from body cells in that they do not have a full set of chromosomes. Sex cells are haploid, meaning they only have one set of chromosomes, while body cells are diploid, with two sets of chromosomes. This difference allows sex cells to combine during fertilization to create a genetically diverse offspring.
Sex cells have half the number of chromosomes that almost all other cells in the body have. In humans, there are 46 chromosomes in body cells, but only 23 in egg cells and sperm cells. This is because, in sexual reproduction, you get half your genes from your mother and half from your father and 23+23=46 total chromosomes.
