Where does meiosis occur in the female?
A
Cervix
B
Uterus
C
Ovary
D
Testicles
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -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.

Detailed explanation-2: -Meiosis occurs in the primordial germ cells, cells specified for sexual reproduction and separate from the body’s normal somatic cells.

Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis is the kind of cell division that produces sex cells or the gametes. It takes place in the plant reproductive organs-anther and ovary.

Detailed explanation-4: -Answer and Explanation: Meiosis does not occur anywhere in the body besides the gonads. Because the purpose of meiosis is to produce haploid reproductive cells, this process only occurs in the testes of males during sperm production, or in the ovaries of females during the production of egg cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -A single diploid cell yields four haploid sperm cells through meiosis. In females, meiosis begins during the fetal stage when a series of diploid cells enter meiosis I. At the conclusion of meiosis I, the process comes to a halt, and the cells gather in the ovaries.
