Why is it important sex cells have half the number of chromosomesas body cells?
This is important because two sex cells become fertilized and join together to form the new organism. If sex cells had the same number of chromosomes as body cells, then offspring would have twice as many chromosomes as a normal animal would.
What are two differences cells and animal cells?
plant cell shave a cell wall - animal cells do not plants cells have chlorophyll - animal cells do not
How many copies of each chromosome are found in most animal cells?
Animals cells are diploids, meaning they have 2 copies.
What is the process when male and female sex cells combine?
Plant cells don't have specific sex cells because they are asexual creatures. Asexual meaning they reproduce by means of the cell division or mitosis, not by one cell fertilizing another, like most animals cells do during meiosis.
What are two types of cells?
Animal cells and plant cells
What are two types of cells called?
When a cell reproduces by mitosis, the two identical new cells are called daughter cells.

The pinching in of the cell membrane in animal cells is called?
The pinching in of the cell membrane in animal cells is called cytokinesis. This process is part of cell division and involves the physical separation of the two daughter cells.
The process by which a new organism is produced when sex cells from two parents combine is called?
meiosis.
When a cell divides and produces two cell with half the number of chromosomes?
The process is called meiosis. And those two cells are sex cells aka gametes.

plant cell shave a cell wall - animal cells do not plants cells have chlorophyll - animal cells do not
How many copies of each chromosome are found in most animal cells?
Animals cells are diploids, meaning they have 2 copies.
Are chromosomes and sex cells the two major cells in your body?
No. Chromosomes are parts of cells, and sex cells are just one of many types of cells.

Plant cells don't have specific sex cells because they are asexual creatures. Asexual meaning they reproduce by means of the cell division or mitosis, not by one cell fertilizing another, like most animals cells do during meiosis.
What are two types of cells?
Animal cells and plant cells
Is meiosis cell division?
Yes, meiosis is a type of cell division. But it is also called a reduction division. Instead of two daughter cells four cells are produced that have half the number of chromosomes. These cells are called gametes or sex cells.
Compare the process that animal cells and plant cells use to make new cells?
Both animal cells and plant cells produce new cells by Mitosis, but at the "Telophase" stage (where the cell actually splits) they split differently. A cleavage furrow forms on the animal cell and it splits. For the plant cell, a cell plate forms and the cell splits.
