12.4 Meiosis Worksheet
1. A cell with two pairs of each set of chromosomes is called a [ diploid / haploid ] cell.
These cells are typically found throughout the body tissues and are called [ germ /somatic ] cells.
2. A cell with only one set of chromosomes is called [ diploid / haploid ] cell.
These types of cells are found in the reproductive organs and are called [ germ /somatic ] cells.
3. Sperm and egg cells are called [ gametes / zygotes ].
4. A type of cell division that results in diploid cells: [ meiosis / mitosis ]
