why does meiosis produces gametes with half the number of chromosomes?

Answers

Answered by pathakshreya456

Answer:

The purpose of meiosis is to shuffle genetic information and cut the cellular chromosome number in half, from 46 chromosomes to 23 chromosomes. In this way, when an egg and sperm cell combine during fertilization, the resulting embryo will inherit the appropriate amount of unique genetic information from each parent.
