The main function of meiosis is to produce gametes, which are the egg and sperm cells. These cells have half of the number of chromosomes that are in a normal body cells.
The two main stages of meiosis are meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes, while meiosis II involves the separation of sister chromatids. Each stage includes prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
four gametes are produced for every original cell
mitosis involves 1 division while meiosis involves 2
The main function of meiosis II is to separate sister chromatids, resulting in the formation of haploid gametes with unique genetic combinations. This stage of meiosis ensures genetic diversity among offspring.

Meiosis functions in the formation of gametes, specifically sperm and egg cells in animals, or pollen and ovules in plants. During meiosis, cells undergo two rounds of division, resulting in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell to ensure genetic diversity in offspring.
because of an error during meiosis or mitosis or because of something in the enviroment.
The skin has three main functions: protection, regulation and sensation.
Meiosis is responsible for producing gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. It generates genetic diversity through crossing over and independent assortment during prophase I and metaphase I. Meiosis also ensures genetic recombination by mixing maternal and paternal chromosomes.
meiosis 1 the result is 2 different cells with diploid (or duplicated haploids) chromosomes and for meiosis 2, the result is 4 different haploid cells
