Question

Which best describes meiosis?

Answer 1

It produces male and female sex cells

Answer 2

The right answer is It produces male and female sex cells.

Meiosis is the process of double cell division allowing the formation of gametes, or sexual cells in eukaryotic organisms. It differs from mitosis, somatic cell division, which takes place only in a time. From a diploid mother cell, we obtain four haploid daughter cells with different genetic material.
