When a cell undergoes meiosis what will be the result?

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).
