The type of cell division which leads to gametes is called meiosis. This results in four haploid daughter cells (cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell).
Gametes themselves do not divide until after they have fused (during fertilization) and become a zygote. After this point they are no longer gametes - but the type of division that the zygote undergoes is mitosis.
Meiosis is the process of cell division that multicellular organisms use to make sex cells. Mitosis makes body cells, while meiosis makes sex cells.
gametogenesis
Gametes are produced through meiosis.

That is meiosis.
Meiosis. Mitosis is in somatic sells(non gametes/non sex cells) , and meiosis occurs in gametes/sex cells.
You're thinking about Meiosis, which is the cell division that results in the gametes necessary for sexual reproduction.
Somatic cells are the cells that form the body like skin, blood and bones. These type of cells go through the cell division process called mitosis. Gametes, or germline cells, like sperm and ova go a different cell division process called meiosis.
A special cell division called meiosis produces gametes(sex cells).

Four genetically different gametes.
Yes, meiosis is a type of cell division. But it is also called a reduction division. Instead of two daughter cells four cells are produced that have half the number of chromosomes. These cells are called gametes or sex cells.
In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis), and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).
Yes, meiosis is a type of cell division. But it is also called a reduction division. Instead of two daughter cells four cells are produced that have half the number of chromosomes. These cells are called gametes or sex cells.
Yes. This process produces gametes called eggs in females and sperm in males.
That is meiosis.

Gametes are reproductive cells produced by a type of cell division called meiosis. They contain only one set of chromosomes and are said to be haploid.
