Plants can use meiosis to reproduce. If you take a root from a friends plant and plant it, it will grow and be exactly like your friends. The plant will be identical because they will have exactly the same cell type.
An organism that can reproduce on its own has asexual reproduction
The type of sexual life cycle that a eukaryotic organism has depends on the type of cell that undergoes meiosis and on when meiosis occurs.
A physical characteristic that allows an organism to survive and reproduce.
If it is a living organism it must reproduce itself sexually or asexually. Reproduction of the organism ( not viral hijacking of the reproductive mechanisms ) is one part of the definition of living things.
A chemosynthetic organism uses sulfur or other elements as a source of energy.
Bacteria (prokaryotes) do not undergo meiosis. They reproduce through a process called binary fission, which is a form of asexual reproduction.
Meiosis is still important for the regrowth of cells in a sexually reproductive organism. For example even thought humans reproduce sexually they still have skin cells, like hair, finger nails, and even normal skin that produces new cells by meiosis.
Organisms that exhibit gametic meiosis are typically animals, including most vertebrates and invertebrates. In this type of meiosis, only the gametes (sperm and egg cells) are haploid, while the rest of the organism's cells are diploid.
Meiosis is the replication of sex cells, so if an organism doesn't want to reproduce offspring, then they can live healthily without undergoing the process of meiosis. However, mitosis is the replication of every other cell in the body, assisting with growth and repair so no organism can live a healthy life without undergoing the process of mitosis.
Animals and plants, divide cells to reproduce, this is meiosis.

Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
Hermit crabs use meiosis to reproduce
No, muscle cells do not reproduce in meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) for sexual reproduction, while muscle cells reproduce through a process called mitosis.
the organism has to reproduce otherwise the species will go extinct.
The answer to this question is a host! A host could be a host cell which a virus uses to reproduce and create more viruses to get you sick!
it does use mitosis, it doesn't reproduce by meiosis.
