How are sex cells different from any other cells in the body?

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.


Does meiosis divide sex cells and body cells?

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.
