What is gametic meiosis and zygotic meiosis.
Gametic Meiosis | Zygotic Meiosis |
---|---|
* Meiosis takes place during gamete formation. | * Meiosis takes place in the zygote. |
* It results in the formation of haploid gametes. | * It results in the formation of haploid individuals. |
* Gametes fuse during fertilisation and form a diploid individual; hence the life cycle of the organism is called diplontic. | * Zygote divides to form a haploid individual; hence the life cycle of the organism is called haplontic. |
