How does cellular information pass from one generation to the next? Include meiosis in your answer.
JulsSmile [24]

Meiosis in reproductive organs (testes and ovary) produce gametes. Each human cell including reproductive cells contains 23 pair of chromosomes. Meiosis separates the two chromosomes from each pair thus, each gamete receives only one copy of each chromosome. Therefore, each gamete has 23 new chromosomes, one from each of the 23 pairs. During meiosis, exchange of chromosome segment between copies of a pair of chromosomes. The exchange of chromosome segments creates new combinations of genes which enhances genetic variability within a species.
