There are cells called gametes, and everybody needs…

To make a lot of them if they want to breed.

Remember, the number of chromosomes, in you and me

In meiosis is halved from 46 to 23.

Before meiosis, gets underway,

The original cell must replicate its DNA.

Remember, the number of chromosomes, in you and me

In meiosis is halved from 46 to 23.

Homologous chromosomes exchange information

Whitch helps create diversity in each new generation

A reductive process of division is employed

To create 2 daughter cells that are haploid

Remember, the number of chromosomes, in you and me

In meiosis is halved from 46 to 23.

Each of these daughter cells, divides once more

Which makes a set of haploid cells that equals 4
