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
How are the gametes produced by meiosis alike?
They are all 1N (haploid) and they all come from the same individual (assuming the question is regarding the gametes produced by a single individual).
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.
How many chromosomes in meiosis?
The original question was not asking about "each new cell," but rather they were asking about the parent cell which is the start of meiosis. The answer is, each parent cell, NOT gamete cell, contains 46 chromosomes or is diploid, (2n). After the two divisions that occur in meiosis, the end result will be four haploid (n) cells or rather, four cells with 23 chromosomes each.
Why is meiosis important for sexually producing organisms?
Meiosis produce 4 heploid cell and that four cell contain single strand chromosome which is 23 and nt 46 so it give variation and evolution

How are haploid and diploid related to mitosis and meiosis?
Meiosis in simple terms is the process by which gametes (sperm and egg) fuse together to produce a fertilised egg. Haploid is a word that refers to how many chromosomes a certain cell has. In this case the gametes have a haploid number of chromosomes, which is half the number a normal cell has. A normal cell has a diploid number of chromosomes. So in meiosis the two gametes come together with their hapoid number of chromosomes each to create an egg that has a diploid (standard) number of chromosomes.
When compared with the number of gametes produced from a single primary sex cell during oogenesis the number of gametes produced from a single hman primary sex cell during spermatogenesis is usually w?
four times as great
How is the formation of gametes in males different to the formation of gametes in females?
Both gametes, sperm and egg, are formed by meiosis which is a type of sexual reproduction. Male gametes, sperm, is slightly smaller and has a tadpole shape to it and also is very mobile and produced by tons, but female gametes, egg, are larger, less mobile, and there are not so many eggs as sperm.
In what type of cell division does the chromosome number reduce by one half and gametes form?
Meiosis produces gametes which have half the number of chromosomes that other cells of the body have.
What single male sex cell undergoing meiosis will produce?
4 sperm cells

How does oogenesis compare to the final product of spermatogenesis in males?
meiosis is the process; males produce four haploid gametes (sperm) while in females only a single haploid gamete (egg) is produced. The other three cells (polar bodies) fail to mature and die.
Why is meiosis only for sex cells?
Only diploid cells can undergo meiosis because haploid cells have a single set of chromosomes that can't be furthered reduced. Gametes form through meiosis.
