No. Meosis is a reductional division that brings about the generation of gametes. Mitosis takes place in the root tip cells. The root tip of a healthy plant is growing rapidly and there is a requirement for many newly formed cells.
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.
Depends on what you are looking for. In mitosis, two daughter cells are produced after cytokinesis. In meiosis, there are two cell divisions that take place at two different times. One after meiosis I (which produces 2 intermediate cells) and one after meiosis II, which produces a total of four daughter cells.
Meiosis takes place during the formation of gametes in animals with a diplontic life cycle. This occurs when germ cells undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes (sperm and egg cells) that will later fuse during fertilization to form a diploid zygote.
Mitoses does take place in sexually reproducing organisms. There are two types of cells in your body, somatic cells (heart, skin, bones, etc.) and sex cells (eggs and sperm). Somatic cells all use mitosis to make more of themselves. Sex cells use meiosis to make more of themselves. If sex cells used mitosis instead of meiosis they would have too many chromosomes and the baby would have problems (if it survived at all).
Photosynthesis occurs in the chloroplasts of plant cells, which are typically found in the leaves. Root cells do not contain chloroplasts and are not exposed to sunlight, so photosynthesis cannot take place in a root cell. Roots primarily function in absorption of water and nutrients from the soil.

Here it is. mitosis is a division on the body cells meiosis is a division on the sex cells. Thus, meiosis take place in the sex organ of the pig.
meiosis occurs in organisms so that they can reproduce sexually, its a process of cell division during which the nucleus divides into four nuclei, each of which contains half the usual number of chromosomes. and it occurs in both males and females

No, root cells don't have access to sunlight and don't photosynthesize
Both Meiosis I and Meiosis II involve the processes of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Additionally, both stages result in the formation of haploid cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Meiosis takes place in the young flower bud in microspore mother cells present in the developing anther lobes and megaspore mother cells present in developing ovules.
The cell must undergo DNA replication to ensure that each daughter cell will receive a complete set of chromosomes during meiosis or mitosis. This step is crucial for the accurate distribution of genetic material to the daughter cells.

somatic cells divide by mitosis. gametes, and sexual cell differentiation take place through meiosis.
Yes, anything which produces a zygote goes through meiosis.
