Question

How does meiosis affect life?

Answer 1

Meiosis in organisms:

1. Meiosis is a reduction division in which the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is halved.
2. Meiosis is the process through which sexually reproducing animals and plants produce male and female gametes.
3. Meiosis is the process through which chromosomal counts in a species are transferred from one generation to the next.
4. It also produces genetic recombination, which is an evolutionary force.
