Meiosis is a form of cell division that produces four daughter cells that are haploid (have half the number of chromosomes found in a normal/somatic cell). Meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction, and produces gametes (sperm and ovum/egg).
Sexual reproduction joins two cells that each have half the total chromosome number.
Meiosis is usually reserved for cells used in sexual reproduction. They have half the number of chromosomes found in the organism's somatic cells. A mosquito has six chromosomes in its somatic cells, and therefore would have three in each gamete formed by meiosis.
by using Harry Potter's wand.
In meiosis diploid cells divide to produce four daughter cells each of which is haploid. It is the type of cell division required to produce gametes.
Produce cells that contain the haploid number of chromosomes.
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 number of chromosomes in daughter cells in human meiosis is 23. During meiosis, the number of chromosomes in the parent cells (sperm and egg cells) is halved to produce haploid daughter cells, which contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cells.
It produces four genetically different cells with 23 chromosomes each. They are haploid.
In humans meiosis produces 23 chromosomes. The human body cell has 46 chromosomes When meiosis occurs 1/2 of the body cells go into the haploid cell produced
Meiosis is a special type of cell division. It is important to reproduce due to the sets of chromosomes in the cell.
Meiosis is a form of cell division that produces four daughter cells that are haploid (have half the number of chromosomes found in a normal/somatic cell). Meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction, and produces gametes (sperm and ovum/egg).
4 cells are produced at the end of meiosis.
Sexual reproduction joins two cells that each have half the total chromosome number.
Meiosis I should not produce haploid cells. They should be diploid because before meiosis I the diploid cell duplicated its DNA. It is only after Meiosis II that the four cells are haploid.
The process you are thinking of is mitosis or meiosis. Don't know which one the process is meiosis. mitosis is where each cell receives a copy of the original chromosomes. < meiosis >
