Detailed explanation-1: -Purpose: Meiosis is a special version of cell division that occurs only in the testes and ovaries; the organs that produce the male and female reproductive cells; the sperm and eggs.

Detailed explanation-2: -According to Model 1, in what type of organs are the cells that enter meiosis I found? Sex organs (ovaries and testes).

Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis is the process of cell division that occurs in the testes and ovaries and results in the formation of the reproductive cells, the sperm and the ovum. In meiosis four ‘daughter cells’ are formed after two rounds of division.

Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis occurs in the cells of reproductive organs ( testes in males, and ovaries in females) It produces gametes (sperm and ova).

Detailed explanation-5: -Primary oocytes undergo gametogenesis, or meiosis division, in order to develop into an ovary or a female gamete. In females, the ovary is where the gametogenesis process takes place. Meiosis occurs in the ovary during gametogenesis in females.
