What is Meiosis Exactly?What is Meiosis Exactly? Meiosis is a form of cell division that Meiosis is a form of cell division that
halves the number of chromosomes halves the number of chromosomes when forming specialized reproductive when forming specialized reproductive cells such as gametes or sporescells such as gametes or spores
There are 2 stages of meiosis, Meiosis There are 2 stages of meiosis, Meiosis 1 and meiosis 21 and meiosis 2
Meiosis 1 and 2 create 4 haploid cells Meiosis 1 and 2 create 4 haploid cells all togetherall together

Exception: Sex chromosomes (X, Y).
Other chromosomes are known as autosomes, they have homologues.
