Meiosis involved the production of the reproductive cells that bear unique genetic constitution of the cell. It is required for diversifying as it creates genetic diversification due to effect on the gene pool. Every sex cell made from meiosis has a unique combination of chromosomes. Meiosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes in the cells

Nature of cells if they had not been divided by meiosis:

  • Meiosis complicated the construction of the reproductive cells that bring unique genetic nature of the cell.
  • It is needed for diversifying as it develops genetic diversification due to effect on the gene pool.
  • Meiosis is essential because it guarantee that all animals produced through sexual reproduction holds the correct number of chromosomes in the cells.
  • If meiosis does not taken place properly, "an egg or sperm" which could be end up possibly with too 'many chromosomes', or 'with not enough chromosomes'.
  • During the fertilization time, the baby could receive an "extra chromosome" (trisomy), or have a "missing chromosome" (monosomy).
