Detailed explanation-1: -Meiosis produces our sex cells or gametes? (eggs in females and sperm in males).
Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis, on the other hand, is used for just one purpose in the human body: the production of gametes-sex cells, or sperm and eggs.
Detailed explanation-3: -The haploid cells produced by meiosis are germ cells, also known as gametes, sex cells or spores in plants and fungi.
Detailed explanation-4: -Two divisions, meiosis I and meiosis II, are required to produce gametes (Figure 3). Meiosis I is a unique cell division that occurs only in germ cells; meiosis II is similar to a mitotic division.
Detailed explanation-5: -Answer and Explanation: The final product of meiosis is four haploid daughter cells that contain chromosomal differences from the original parent cell and half the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell (diploid).
