What is gametogenesis, Biology

Assignment Help:

What is the type of cell division that allows sexual reproduction? What is gametogenesis?

Meiosis is the type of cell division that permits sexual reproduction since it decreases to a half the number of chromosomes of the species making possible the combination of two gametes to produce a new individual. (In some beings meiosis makes haploid gametophytes that by means of mitosis generate gametes. Even in this case the function of meiosis is the similar: to give cells with half of the number of chromosomes of the species with separation of the homologous.)
