They have haploid number of chromosomes. They undergo meiosis cell division during their formation.it is the type of cell division in which the chromosome number of the parent is reduced cells to half in the daughter cells.
I think it's that first of all, sex cells undergo meiosis 1 and 2. None of the others do.
Sex cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes than body cells. In humans that is 23.

Sex cells, called gametes, are different to other cells in that they contain half the number of chromosomes. So in a human sex cell, there are 23 chromosomes, whereas a normal human cell has 46 chromosomes.
Sex cells have only half of the information unlike other cells so u don't have a exact copy
it helps the genes more and helps with more chromosome
Sex cells have 1/2 the number of chromosomes of a normal cell (23)
Cause body cells have twice the chromosomes a sex cell has Body cells have 46 chromosomes and sex cells have 23 chromosomes.
The sex cells have half the chromosomes that were in the parent cell.
Hi, To start with, sex cells and somatic cells have totally different functions. Sex cells are used entirely for the use of reproduction and somatic cells are what makes up your body and helps you function. Sex cells have 23 chromosomes, and only one set of genetic information that incorporates traits of both you mum and dad. Somatic cells on the other hand have 46 chromosomes and have two sets of genetic information (one from your dad and one from your mum). When these cells divide, they also go through different systems. Sex cells go through meiosis, which is separated into eight steps and results into 4 different cells. Somatic cells go through mitosis which ends up in two daughter cells. Hope this helped.
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.
Meiosis produces sex cells (gametes) through two rounds of cell division, resulting in four genetically diverse cells. During meiosis I, homologous chromosomes are separated, and crossing over occurs, exchanging genetic material between them. This shuffling of genetic information, along with independent assortment of chromosomes, ensures that each gamete contains a unique combination of genes. As a result, the sex cells are not only different from each other but also genetically distinct from the parent cells.
