Meiosis

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half,resulting in the production of haploid daughter cells. This process is essential for sexual reproduction to maintain the constant chromosome number across generations. Mitosis,on the other hand,is known as equational division because the chromosome number remains the same in the daughter cells.

List-$I$ (Phase of meiosis)	List-$II$ (Event that occurs)
$1$. Prophase $I$	Crossing over occurs
$2$. Metaphase $I$	Sister chromatids migrate to opposite poles
$3$. Anaphase $I$	Homologous chromosomes line up at the equator in pairs

What is the process called in which the number of chromosomes in the nucleus is reduced to half during cell division?
