Which of the following cell types are produced by meiosis?
a
zygotes
b
diploid sperm and egg cells
c
gametes
d
somatic cells
1 answer
The correct answer is c) gametes. Meiosis is the process by which germ cells produce gametes, such as sperm and egg cells, which are haploid (having half the number of chromosomes as somatic cells) and are therefore able to fuse during fertilization to form a zygote.
