Embryo Flashcards
What are somatic cells?
Diploid Cells that make-up the body
What are gamete?
The are haploid cells that donate genetic material to the offspring
What’s meiosis?
Cell division producing haploid cells from diploid cells
Gametogenesis
Formation of gametes that occurs in the gonads
It’s also the process by which a diploid or haploid cell undergo division and differentiation to form mature haploid gametes
