❤. Meiosis occurs and diploid organism sir during gametogenesis organic formation, as a result, the gametes become haploid.

❤. By the fusion of two such haploid gametes, a diploid zygote is formed and it develops involving mitotic divisions.

❤. Thus, meiosis maintains the characteristic number of chromosomes constant.

✔️ Meiosis is a process of reductional division in which the amount of genetic material is reduced.

✔️ Gametogenesis is the process of the formation of gametes.

✔️ Gametes produced by organisms are haploids (containing only one set of chromosomes), while the body of an organism is diploid.

✔️ Therefore, for producing haploid gametes (gametogenesis), the germ cells of an organism undergo meiosis.

✔️ During the process, the meiocytes of an organism undergo two successive nuclear and cell divisions with a single cycle of DNA replication to form the haploid gametes.
