Meiosis occurs in germ cells, which are specialized reproductive cells in organisms. In animals, these cells give rise to gametes: sperm in males and eggs in females. In plants, meiosis takes place in cells of the reproductive structures, leading to the formation of spores that can develop into gametophytes. This process is essential for sexual reproduction, ensuring genetic diversity through the production of haploid cells.
Only sex cells such as sperm and eggs undergo meiosis. This occurs at puberty.
Germ cells in the gonads (ovaries and testes) undergo meiosis.
Somatic cells (body cells) undergo mitosis. An example of this could be a skin cell, as the skin cell replacing the dying skin cell must be an exact clone.Sex cells (gametes) undergo meiosis.Because meiosis results in half the number of chromosomes in it's daughter cells, gametes are the only cells that undergo meiosis in the body.
Cells which produce gametes (sex cells) undergo meiosis.
No. Only the cells that produce the gametes undergo meiosis.
Body cells do not undergo meiosis. Reproductive cells undergo meiosis, body cells, mitosis.
Only sex cells such as sperm and eggs undergo meiosis. This occurs at puberty.
No. Humans undergo mitosis, because two daughter cells contain the same genetic makeup as the parent cellOf course germ cells undergo meiosis. They produce sperms and ova
In the sex organs (testicles, ovaries)
Cells undergo meiosis in the reproductive organs of organisms, such as the testes in males and ovaries in females. In these organs, germ cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes (sperm and eggs) for sexual reproduction.
Germ cells in the gonads (ovaries and testes) undergo meiosis.
Somatic cells (body cells) undergo mitosis. An example of this could be a skin cell, as the skin cell replacing the dying skin cell must be an exact clone.Sex cells (gametes) undergo meiosis.Because meiosis results in half the number of chromosomes in it's daughter cells, gametes are the only cells that undergo meiosis in the body.
Cells which produce gametes (sex cells) undergo meiosis.
cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes which are also called your "sex" cells
No. Only the cells that produce the gametes undergo meiosis.
Meiosis occurs in the gonads (ovaries in females and testes in males) of the human body. This is where specialized cells called germ cells undergo meiosis to produce gametes (eggs and sperm) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
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.
