Question

In meiosis in human females, two cell divisions result in one functional egg cell and two to three smaller non-functional polar bodies. The result of this is that
A. the polar bodies may be used for future egg cells.
B. the mature egg cell has plenty of nourishing cytoplasm.
C. the mature sperm cell has plenty of nourishing cytoplasm.
D. the egg cell is diploid.

Answer 1

What do you think?

Answer 2

A?

Answer 3

Polar bodies are non-functional which means they can't be used for fertilization

Answer 4

Cross out 'D' as well, gametes are haploids

Answer 5

B?

Answer 6

Left B and C, but it's obvious

Answer 7

?

Answer 8

Female produces eggs or sperms?

Answer 9

Meiosis is a special type of cell division necessary for sexual reproduction. In animals, meiosis produces gametes like sperm and egg cells, while in other organisms like fungi it generates spores. Meiosis begins with one diploid cell and produces four haploid cells containing one copy of each chromosome.
