Result Of Meiosis Gametes. Each gamete ends up with a copy of one chromosome from each pair. Meiosis produces haploid gametes ova or sperm that contain one set of 23 chromosomes.
During this process the normal number of the cells chromosomes is reduced by half. Gametes are formed that are haploid. New types of cells forming.
Meiosis produces haploid gametes ova or sperm that contain one set of 23 chromosomes.
The halving of the number of chromosomes in the gametes during meiosis ensures that the zygotes have the same number of chromosomes from each generation to the next. When two gametes an egg and a sperm fuse the resulting zygote is once again diploid with the mother and father each contributing 23 chromosomes. Meiosis is a special type of cell division of germ cells in sexually-reproducing organisms used to produce the gametes such as sperm or egg cells. Each gamete receives one member of each pair of homologous chromosomes.
