Meiosis

Meiosis (/maɪˈoʊsɪs/ ⓘ) is a special type of cell division of germ cells in sexually-reproducing organisms that produces the gametes; the sperm or egg cells, although in mammals the process of meiosis finishes only after fertilization so the product is a zygote. It involves two rounds of division that ultimately result in four cells, each with only one…
