Question
which of the following types of cells would be produced by meiosis? select all that apply. a diploid unicellular organism a diploid plant cell a haploid plant cell a diploid animal cell a haploid animal cell
Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in haploid cells. In plants, meiosis produces haploid spores (which can develop into haploid plant cells). In animals, meiosis produces haploid gametes (haploid animal cells). Diploid cells (whether in unicellular organisms, plants, or animals) are typically produced by mitosis (which maintains the chromosome number), not meiosis.
