The formation of sex cells is a central part of human reproduction: In fertilization, an egg cell and a sperm cell combine. These sex cells are also called reproductive cells or gametes. Sperm cells are produced in men's testicles and egg cells are produced in women's ovaries. Sex cells are different from other cells in one special way: Put simply, they only have one half of the total amount of human genetic information. When a sperm cell fertilizes an egg cell, the resulting cell has a full set of genetic information again.

Sex cells are formed through a particular kind of cell division called meiosis. Unlike in normal cell division (mitosis), the genetic material of the original (parent) cell is divided up twice.

The process used to produce se_x cells which is different from the process used to produce body cells is called meiosis.

What is meiosis?

Meiosis is a cellular process that generates four daughter germinal cells having half genetic material.

  • Conversely, mitosis produces two genetically identical somatic (body) cells.

In conclusion, the process used to produce se_x cells which is different from the process used to produce body cells is called meiosis.
