Meiosis cell division is called reduction division because in this cell division the cells got from the parents cell is divided into half. So the daughter cells is haploid(n). Thus, meiosis cell division is called reduction division.

How do the chromosomes get to the stage of meiosis prophase?
A nucleus is signals the rest of the cell that the cell is ready to undergo meiosis, in which case the chromosomes begin to condense with the help of histones, which is the beginning of prophase I of meiosis.
Is meiosis known as reduction division?
mitosis is the process of cell division where in the chromosomes replicate and get equally distributed into two daughter cells . the chromosome number in each daughter cell is equal to that in the parent cell..i.e. diploid hence mitosis is known as equational division..
Can you give me one good sentence using the word meiosis?
According to Wikipedia:"In biology, meiosis (pronounced /maɪˈoʊsɨs/) is a process of reductional division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half."
What cell division make gametes?
A special cell division called meiosis produces gametes(sex cells).
Reduction division is the same as what form of cell division?
Reduction division is another term for meiosis- 1 (ONE).
Is a pollen grain one haploid cell?
Yes. Pollen consists of half the number of chromosomes than are present in the sex cells which is the result of meiosis, a reductional division producing gametes.
How many chromosomes will be in a daughter cell after meiosis?
Meosis is called a reductional division. This means the daughter cells in a meotic cell division have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Parent cell (2n) ------> Meotic cell division ------> 2 daughter cells (n)
A type of cell division for sex cells is called?
Meiosis
The process of cell growth and division is called what?
Mitosis and Meiosis.
Where does meiosis occur in the human reproductive system?
No, meiosis is a division of only gametic cells.Mitosis is the cell division of the tissue cells rather all the somatic cells.Meiosis is a reductional division in which the chromosome number of the daughter cell reduces to half.Mitosis restores the original number of chromosomes in the daughter cells. It increase the number of the cells in the population.
What is the type of cell division that produces sex cells called?
It is called meiosis.
What type of cell division results in haploid cells?
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces haploid cells.
