So organisms can procreate and actually fulfill their biological purpose to survive and reproduce. Meiosis is the process in which some organisms reproduce.
Yes, anything which produces a zygote goes through meiosis.
It takes place in the sex organs. So it can produce 4 gametes.
Meiosis.
Crossing-over takes place between homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
Gametes
Yes it does. Good Q'n, it shows reflection.
Meiosis in a mushroom takes place in the basidia, which are specialized cells found on the gills in the underside of the mushroom cap. Basidia undergo meiosis to produce spores, which are the reproductive cells of the mushroom.
Meiosis in flowers takes place in the ovary within structures called ovules. Ovules undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes called eggs or female gametes. This process is essential for sexual reproduction in plants.

Replication does not take place during mitosis. It takes place before meiosis begins.
Crossing over between homologous chromosomes occurs during prophase I of meiosis.
