Question
the cells created through meiosis develop into ___________ *
body cells (ex. muscle cells, stomach cells)
gametes (ex. skin cells, blood cells)
diploid cells
gametes (sex cells - ex. egg and sperm cells)
any cell the organism needs
Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. It results in the formation of gametes (sex cells). Body cells (like muscle, stomach cells) are formed by mitosis. Diploid cells have the full set of chromosomes, while gametes (from meiosis) are haploid. Skin and blood cells are somatic (body) cells (mitosis - formed). Meiosis specifically forms gametes (sex cells - egg and sperm).
