Germ cells divide by meosis. In the mammalian system, female germ cells are called Ove and male germ cells are called Sperm. There are two meotic divisions. At the end of the second meotic division, each daughter cell contains 'n' number of chromosomes, where n is the haploid number.

Is meiosis constantly occurring?

Meiosis occurs only in specific cells, such as reproductive cells in plants and animals. It is not constantly occurring in all cells in the body.


Does meiosis produce most of the body cells?

The only body cell that can under go meiosis, is sex cells, or gametes. Meiosis is the process in which cell division occurs to produce only reproductive cells. Autosomes, or body cells that do not determine gender, under go a cell division called mitosis, but never through the process of meiosis, except for reproductive cells.


What parts of your body does meiosis occur?

it occurs in the gametes, the sex cells. where mitosis occurs in all other cells that have two halves of chromosomes, meiosis occurs in cells which only have one half of the chromosomes.


If the body cells of an organism have 10 chromosomes then the sex cells produced during meiosis would have?

If the body cells have 10 chromosomes, the sex cells produced during meiosis would have 5 chromosomes. This is because meiosis involves two rounds of cell division, resulting in cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original body cells.


Does meiosis divide sex cells and body cells?

Meiosis is responsible for dividing sex cells (sperm and egg cells) into four non-identical haploid cells. It is not involved in dividing body cells, which go through mitosis for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body.


What type of cell undergose meiosis?

Meiosis only occurs in sex cells, which are the sperm and egg cells. Mitosis occurs in the somatic, or body, cells.
