The new organism would not have been formed or it would have some abnormality.


nayanjagdale12688: Plz give in detail or add some points
TheValkyrie: Meiosis is necessary because diploid organism have two sets of chromosomes, one paternal and one maternal. For a diploid organism to undergo sexual reproduction it needs to create gametes that contain only one set of chromosomes so the number of chromosomes in the next generation remains the same (ie one paternal and one maternal). So meiosis is necessary
