Ovary
The organs that produce special reproductive cells in the female body are the ovaries. They generate ova, or egg cells, which are essential for reproduction. Additionally, the ovaries produce hormones such as estrogen and progesterone, which play key roles in regulating the menstrual cycle and supporting pregnancy.
In males, the pair of reproductive organs is the testes, which produce sperm cells and the hormone testosterone. In females, the pair of reproductive organs is the ovaries, which produce egg cells and the hormones estrogen and progesterone.
egg cells and ovaries
Glands that produce the egg cells and hormones are the ovaries.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that forms eggs and sperm in humans. It occurs in the reproductive organs.
it produces about 6 egg cells
No, meiosis does not use normal body cells to produce gametes. Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that occurs in the reproductive organs to produce gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as a normal body cell.
Haploid cells in a cat would typically be found in the reproductive organs, such as the testes and ovaries. These organs produce gametes (sperm and egg cells), which are haploid cells containing half the number of chromosomes as a normal body cell.
egg cells and hormones
One of the small organs where the egg cells are stored is the ovary. Each ovary contains multiple egg cells that are released during ovulation for potential fertilization.
um... 72 and a half
Meiosis is primarily used by germ cells, which are specialized cells in the reproductive organs. In males, meiosis occurs in the testes to produce sperm cells, while in females, it occurs in the ovaries to produce egg cells. This process reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in haploid gametes that can combine during fertilization to form a diploid zygote.
