Question

Meiotic division takes place in

  1.  Conductive cells

  2. Vegetative cells

  3. Reproductive cells

  4. Meristematic cells

hintHint:

Meiosis takes place in eggs and sperm.

The correct answer is:

Reproductive cells


    • Meiosis is a type of cell division in which the chromosome number is halved of the mother cell and then it produces four gamete cells.
    • This process is necessary to generate egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction. During reproduction, when the sperm and egg cells combine into a single cell, the chromosome number of the offspring is restored.
