What is the process by which gametes are generated?


Sagot :

Both the male and female gametes are formed during a process of cellular reproduction called meiosis. During meiosis the DNA is only replicated or copied 1 time. However, the cells are divided into 4 separate cells. This means that the new gamete cells have only half of the number of chromosomes as other cells.
