How do mitosis and meiosis differ? Q 15 of 15 Meiosis occurs as sex cells reproduce and engage in crossing over, while mitosis occurs as DNA replicates itself. Mitosis occurs in females, and meiosis occurs in males in sexual reproduction. Mitosis is used to create the DNA in sex cells, and meiosis replicates cells within the body. Meiosis is involved in sex cell reproduction, which duplicates the 46 chromosomes, and mitosis is not.

Oogenesis

The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase. 

Cell Division

Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
