Meiosis is a form of cellular division where the resulting cells are haploid (n).
This process is used to produce gametes - either pollen grains or ovules in plants. In humans it results in the ovum and sperm cells.

The fusion of male and female gamete is called?
The fusion of two haploid gametes to form a new diploid cell is called fertilization. Self-fertilization in plants, the fusion of two gametes from the same individual to form a diploid offspring.
How does fertilization in a seed plants differ from fertilization in seedless plants?
Seed plants produce seeds to overcome the adverse environmental conditions whereas seedless plants overcome the adverse environmental conditions by vegetative parts such as tubers, gemma cups or even spores. Since formation of seed involves genetic advance seed formation for reproduction is more successful in nature.
Which of the following would be produced by meiosis red blood cell cells of the stem in plants sperm cell or epithelial cell?
Meiosis would produce sperm cells and epithelial cells in plants. Red blood cells do not undergo meiosis, as they lack a nucleus and are not capable of dividing.
Which cells in a multicellular organism undergo meiosis?
Meiosis is a stage of cell division that is crucial for sexual reproduction of plants and animals. The cells that are produced by this process are known as gametes (in animals) or spores (in plants) which in the end still produce gametes.
What is the sequence of events for reproduction in flowering plants?
Pollen is transferred from the anther to the stigma. The chemical inside of the stigma then stimulates the pollen and grows a long tube like structure inside of the style that leads to the ovary and ovules. Once the sperm is released from a pollen grain, fertilization happens within the plant. When fertilization is complete, the ovule creates a seed.
Meiosis is used to produce what before fertilization?
Meiosis is a form of cellular division where the resulting cells are haploid (n). This process is used to produce gametes - either pollen grains or ovules in plants
How do plants produce spores?
Through the process of meiosis.
To produce spores all plants must undergo?
meiosis
How plants make their gametes?
plant produce gametes through meiosis
In plants the saprophyte generation produce what spores through meiosis?
hapoid
Which group of plants produce double fertilization?
That's called a threesome
Why can plants vary from the plant parent?
Due to genetic recombination during gamete formation by meiosis and fusion of such gametes during fertilization.
How do plants produce seed pods?
All leguminous plants produce seed pods form their ovaries after pollination and fertilization of egg inside ovules.
Where does meiosis occur in seedless plants?
Meiosis typically occurs in the specialized structures called sporangia or sporophylls in seedless plants. These structures are found on the sporophyte generation of the plant, where meiosis takes place to produce spores.
What kind of plant structure does meiosis produce in seedless plants?
prothallus
What are characteristics of seed plants?
Seed plants are characterized by the presence of ovules and pollen grains and after pollination and fertilization produce seeds from their ovules.
Which plants can produce new plants without going through the process of fertilization and pollination?
strawberries, grapes and other vines, except for some plants like passionfruit.
