____________ type of cell division takes place in gametes.

  1. Mitotic cell division

  2. Meiotic cell division

  3. Both A and B

  4. None of the above

hintHint:

The process of cell replication in which a cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells.

The correct answer is:

Meiotic cell division


    • Meiotic cell division is also known as reductive cell division.
    • Cell division during gametogenesis occurs by meiosis.
    • At the end of each meiotic cell division, four cells with a haploid number of chromosomes are formed.
