But when asked about the tallest mountain most would probably say Everest again, not understanding that in mountain measuring terms you just asked them a completely different question. When measuring mountains there are many things to remember.
A: Meiosis is important because during sexual reproduction, it ensures that all produced organisms have the correct number of chromosomes. It is also responsible for producing genetic variations during the process of recombination, and it repairs some genetic defects.
Meiosis produces four haploid cells that may develop into potential gametes so that when fertilization occurs, a new individual with the full number of genes results, thereby maintaining the integrity of chromosomal number across generations while promoting genetic diversity and variability in forms in the population.
