Best Answer

the cytoplasm of the females gametes does not divide equally after each nuclear division because of the daughter cells, called ootid, receives most of cytoplasm. The other cells called polar bodies, die, and the nutrients are absorbed by the body of the organism. Only one ovum (egg cell) is produced from meiosis. In contrast, with sperm cells, there is an equal division of cytoplasm. Because of their function, sperm cells have much less cytoplasm than egg cells.

It maintains the correct number of chromosomes in offspring.

Meiosis makes sex cells. The joining of two sex cells must have the same number of chromosomes as the parents. Hence why sex cells are haploid (23 chromosomes) when all others are diploid (23 chromosome *pairs*). Two haploid together makes a single diploid.
