Exempel
Meiosis ensures genetic diversity by creating haploid cells with unique combinations of chromosomes.
In certain organisms, such as fungi, haploids can undergo meiosis to produce haploid spores.
Meiosis helps maintain a stable chromosome number across generations by halving the number of chromosomes in gametes.
The process of meiosis involves two consecutive divisions, resulting in four non-identical haploid cells.
In spermatogenesis, primary spermatocytes reduce through meiosis to form haploid spermatids.
