Production of gametes.
Meiosis occurs only in the gonads. Meiosis is the process by which gametes (sperm and egg cells) are produced in the gonads, while mitosis is the process by which somatic cells undergo cell division for growth and repair throughout the body.
gonads
Gametogenesis occurs in the gonads. Spermatogenesis happens in the testes, and oogenesis in the ovaries.
meiosis occurs in the gonads (the testes-seminiferous tubules in males and ovaries in females)
Gametogenesis occurs in the gonads (ovaries in females and testes in males). In females, oogenesis takes place in the ovaries, where oogonia develop into primary oocytes. In males, spermatogenesis occurs in the testes, where spermatogonia differentiate into sperm cells.
Remember that meiosis ONLY occurs in the sex organs (gonads). In segmented worms, meiosis occurs in the cocoon they excrete after intercourse with another hermaphroditic worm. However, ALL the other cells in the annelid undergo mitosis.
Yes, meiosis occurs in gonads. In males, meiosis takes place in the testes to produce sperm cells, while in females, meiosis occurs in the ovaries to produce egg cells. This process results in the formation of genetically unique haploid cells for sexual reproduction.
Meiosis is a special type of cell division that occurs only within the ovaries and testes.
Gametogenesis takes place in the gonads. The male gonads are the testes, and the female gonads are the ovaries.
Meiotic cell division occurs in the reproductive organs, such as the ovaries in females and the testes in males.
Ovaries are the female gonads.
Gonads is a more general word, and gender neutral. Testes are the male gonads, while the ovaries are the female gonads.
