Why is it important sex cells have half the number of chromosomesas body cells?
This is important because two sex cells become fertilized and join together to form the new organism. If sex cells had the same number of chromosomes as body cells, then offspring would have twice as many chromosomes as a normal animal would.
What are two differences cells and animal cells?
plant cell shave a cell wall - animal cells do not plants cells have chlorophyll - animal cells do not
What are two types of cells?
Animal cells and plant cells
What is the process when male and female sex cells combine?
Plant cells don't have specific sex cells because they are asexual creatures. Asexual meaning they reproduce by means of the cell division or mitosis, not by one cell fertilizing another, like most animals cells do during meiosis.
Is meiosis cell division?
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.
What are two types of cells called?
When a cell reproduces by mitosis, the two identical new cells are called daughter cells.

The process by which a new organism is produced when sex cells from two parents combine is called?
meiosis.
When a cell divides and produces two cell with half the number of chromosomes?
The process is called meiosis. And those two cells are sex cells aka gametes.
What are two differences cells and animal cells?
plant cell shave a cell wall - animal cells do not plants cells have chlorophyll - animal cells do not
Are chromosomes and sex cells the two major cells in your body?
No. Chromosomes are parts of cells, and sex cells are just one of many types of cells.

Animal cells and plant cells

What two cells components do plant cells have but animal cells do not?
Plant cells have chloroplasts and cell walls, which animal cells don't have.

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.
What two organelles are found are found in plant cells but not in animal cells?
Cell wall and chloroplasts are two organelles found in plant cells not within animal cells.
What two organelles do animal cells have that plant cells lack?
The two organelles that plant cells have that animal cells lack are: 1. Cell wall 2. Vacuole.
