Detailed explanation-1: -Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces gametes. Meiosis involves two cell divisions and produces four haploid cells. Sexual reproduction has the potential to produce tremendous genetic variation in offspring. This is due in part to crossing-over during meiosis.
Detailed explanation-2: -What statements accurately describe a type of cell division and the type of cells it produces? Mitosis produces two genetically identical daughter cells. Binary fission produces two genetically identical cells. Meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis contains two separate cell divisions, meaning that one parent cell can produce four gametes (eggs in females, sperm in males). In each round of division, cells go through four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
