Describe meiosis in detail with suitable diagram
Answers
Mitosis is used for almost all of your body’s cell division needs. It adds new cells during development and replaces old and worn-out cells throughout your life. The goal of mitosis is to produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to their mothers, with not a single chromosome more or less.
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. Its goal is to make daughter cells with exactly half as many chromosomes as the starting cell.
To put that another way, meiosis in humans is a division process that takes us from a diploid cell—one with two sets of chromosomes—to haploid cells—ones with a single set of chromosomes. In humans, the haploid cells made in meiosis are sperm and eggs. When a sperm and an egg join in fertilization, the two haploid sets of chromosomes form a complete diploid set: a new genome.
hope this may be helpful !!!
Here's is ur answer ________________
_______________________________
▶️Meiosis:- .
¤ it is type of cell division.
¤ and it occur only in gamets cell.
¤or ... it is being with a single cell.
¤ in this the sex cell are the once that combines to form a new organism .
¤ they produce four new sex cell with the half the original number of chromosome.
¤ in animal's:- it produce ova in female and sperm cell in mail .
¤in plant's ;- the gametes produce by meiosis are in pollen grains and ovules .
✔And the main information is that it is a type of copying process that is different than mitosis.
✔It is also know as reduction division becoz
They produced four daughter cell each with the half number of chromosome , the haploid number n .
Dear ;- hope its helps ☺
