genetic variation
Genetic variability of offspring
At the end of meiosis, haploid cells are produced. These cells need to further develop into mature gametes capable of fertilization, a process called gametogenesis.

Meiosis.
The order would be: Meiosis -> sex cells -> fertilization -> zygote -> mitosis Meiosis creates sex cells, called gametes, which combine during fertilization to create a zygote. The zygote then undergoes mitosis.
Meiosis II is completed after entry of sperm.
The steps in the diploid life cycle are meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to diploid, to reproductive cell. The main steps are Meiosis and Fertilization.
