Each cell contains one-half the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell. Meiosis is similar to the cell division process of non-sex cells known as mitosis. Mitosis produces two cells that are genetically identical to and contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. These cells are diploid cells because they contain two sets of chromosomes. Human diploid cells contain two sets of 23 chromosomes for a total of 46 chromosomes. When sex cells unite during fertilization, the haploid cells become a diploid cell. The production of sperm cells is known as spermatogenesis. This process occurs continuously and takes place within the male testes.
Sociology is the scientific study of human groups. It provides tools for understanding how and why our society functions, impact of social intuitions on individual lives, and the challenges of social interaction between individuals and society.
In summary, sociology is the systematic study of human society, culture, and relationships on a group level. As a field, sociology asks many questions about how human groups and ideas interact with each other.For example, one aspect of sociology is the study of social institutions, which are major structures made up of groups or ideas that influence people's daily lives, views of the world, or integration into society.ne way to think about sociology is to contrast it with different, but similar fields. For example, social psychology asks many of the same questions as sociology but uses different research methodology and studies people on an individual level instead of the group level.
