- In animals, meiosis produces gametes (sperm cells and egg cells), but that does not happen in plants. When some of the cells of a sporophyte undergo meiosis, what types of cells are produced? What do they grow into?arrow_forwardPlants have a life cycle called_______ . In this type of life cycle, some cells in the multicellular diploid stage undergo_______ cell division to form spores, which divide by________ cell division to form a multicellular haploid stage.arrow_forwardWhat is the main reason for meiosis in animals?
