Mule are produced
Explanation:
- Mules are hybrid animals resulting from the crossbreeding of a horse mother and a donkey father. While it's possible for horses and donkeys to breed in the wild, the vast majority of mules have been created by humans through selective breeding.
- Mules have been human companions for millennia, highly valued for their unique physical traits and amiable personalities. Horses have 64 chromosomes and donkeys have 62. So a mule receives 32 chromosomes from its horse parent and 31 from its donkey parent. Because horses and donkeys have different numbers of chromosomes, and their chromosomes don't match exactly, their mule offspring don't properly produce sex cells during meiosis. Meiosis is the process in which sex cells are made in an animal.
- Non-sex cells are produced via mitosis (cell division), which the mule's chromosomes have no trouble doing. In a few very rare cases, female mules have given birth to foals.
