There's only one kind of sperm :P
The sperm cells formed during meiosis have half the DNA of regular cells, so they can combine with the halved genome of the egg cell in forming the zygote.

What kind and how many cells are formed in meiosis?
If your have a single parent cell during meiosis it will make 4 daughter cells. These cells are called gametes and if the parent cell is in a male they would make sperm cells an for a female it would make eggs
What kind of cells does the process mitosis and meiosis make?
Meiosis cell division is where the egg and sperm cells are created. Mitosis cell division is where two identical daughter cells are formed.
Meiosis makes what kind of cells?
Meiosis makes haploid cells that are different to each other and the parent cell. Meiosis is a type of cell division used for sexual reproduction and to create gametes.
Meiosis is for what kind of cell division?
mainly for the division of sex cells (sperm and egg). and creates haploid cells
What kind of cell is formed when chromosomes from a sperm call and an egg cell combine?
A diploid cell called a zygote is formed with a sperm and egg fuse.
What kind of cellular division forms sex cells?
Meiosis is the process by which sex cells are formed.
Why is it necessary to have a haploid cell at the end of meiosis?
In most plants and animals, each cell has two copies of each chromosome. Cells having 2 of each kind of chromosome are called diploid. For instance, human cells have 46 chromosomes (23 different kinds of chromosomes, and 2 copies of each kind). They are diploid. Now think about what happens when a sperm fertilizes an egg. If a sperm has 46 chromosomes, and an egg has 46 chromosomes, then you might think that the fertilized egg would have 92 chromosomes since it is formed by putting together the sperm and the egg. But this doesn't happen. Why not?Sperm cells and egg cells are produced by a process of cell division called meiosis that cuts the number of chromosomes in half (each sperm cell has 23 chromosomes and each egg cell has 23 chromosomes). Then when the sperm and egg combine during fertilization, they produce a cell that has the normal number of chromosomes again. (23 + 23 = 46). Meiosis reduces the number of chromosomes by putting one of each kind instead of two of each kind in each sperm and in each egg. Cells that have only one copy of each kind of chromosome are called haploid. Sperm cells and egg cells are haploid. All other cells in the body have two of each kind of chromosome and are called diploid.
How many divisions will a cell with 16 chromosomes have during meiosis?
Even if there was that kind of sex cell, I don't think it would survive! Sex cells ALWAYS have 46 chromosomes. At the end of meiosis, as long as there are no mistakes, each sperm or egg cell would have 23 chromosomes.
What type of cell reproduction makes egg cells?
Meiosis is the name of the type of cell division that forms eggs and sperm. Mitosis is the other kind of cell reproduction, which forms most other types of cells.
What kind of cells is formed when chromosomes form a sperm cell an egg cell combined?
a diploid
What kinds of cells are produces from meiosis?
Meiosis is a special kind of cell division that produces haploid (1n) cells. During meiosis, a single cell goes through two cell divisions (meiosis I and meiosis II.) Meiosis takes place only in the reproductive tissues of an organism.
What kind of sperm is sperm?
The kind that gets Analice wet
