Yes, both oogenesis (egg production) and spermatogenesis (sperm production) utilize meiosis to produce haploid gametes, or gametes with half the normal amount of genetic material.
Not in all species. Although at the end of meiosis there are 4 daughter cells, not all of these are always eggs.In most animals, females produce one mature ovum (egg) and three "polar bodies" from oogenesis (meiosis).
by meiosis. for sperm it is called spermatogenesis while for eggs it is called oogenesis.
Oogenesis is the formation of the ovum, and spermatogenesis is the formation of the sperm. These two processes are similar as they are both formed by meiosis, (reduction division). Meiosis is the process of cell division where one mother cell will create four daughter cells with half the amount of genetic information. Or in other words, oogenesis and spermatogenesis are creating gametes.
It is true ONLY for meiosis II. Mitosis and Meiosis I produce identical daughter cells.

Meiosis produces four genetically distinct daughter cells.
It is true ONLY for meiosis II. Mitosis and Meiosis I produce identical daughter cells.
Four non-identical daughter cells are produced in meiosis.
oogenesis is the process of making an egg
meiosis produces four haploid gamete cells.
In meiosis diploid cells divide to produce four daughter cells each of which is haploid. It is the type of cell division required to produce gametes.
Meiosis will produce 4 cells that are not identical to the parent cell but are identical to each other.
A cell divides to produce two daughter cells that are genetically different is true for meiosis I only. Homologous chromosomes move toward opposite poles of a dividing cell during meiosis I.
