In oogenesis, a diploid reproductive cell (oogonium) divides meiotically to produce one haploid egg cell (ovum) and one or more polar bodies. The egg cell is then fertilized by a sperm cell to form a zygote.
It depends on what you're talking about mitosis or meiosis.
Mitosis- 2n~2n, for somatic cells (body cells) which aid in growth & repair.
Meiosis- 2n~n, for the testes & ovaries (Germ cells), that makes sperm and egg cells
Binary fission is the asexual reproductive process in which a single cell divides into two separate genetically identical cells. This process is common in prokaryotes such as bacteria and archaea.
The diploid number of an amoeba is generally two. This means that it has two sets of chromosomes in its nucleus. Amoebas reproduce through binary fission, a form of asexual reproduction where the parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells.
In meiosis, egg and sperm are formed from a specialized cell division process where a single diploid cell divides twice to produce four haploid cells. During this process, genetic material is shuffled and recombined through crossing over, resulting in genetic diversity among the resulting eggs and sperm. This genetic diversity is essential for sexual reproduction and the creation of genetically unique offspring.
Gametes are haploid cells, meaning they have half the number of chromosomes as diploid cells. Offspring resulting from the fusion of gametes are usually diploid, with the full set of chromosomes from each parent.
This statement is false. Meiosis is a process in which a diploid cell divides to produce four haploid cells. It involves two rounds of cell division, resulting in genetic variation through crossing over and independent assortment.
