Question 1 Report

ln which of the following structures will cells undergoing meiosis be seen?
Answer Details
Cells undergoing meiosis are seen in the ovary of a flower. Meiosis is a type of cell division that leads to the formation of sex cells (gametes) such as sperm and egg cells. In flowering plants, the ovary is the female reproductive organ that contains the ovules which eventually develop into seeds. During meiosis, the diploid cells in the ovary divide to form haploid cells that become the egg cells. Therefore, meiosis occurs in the ovary of a flower, where the reproductive cells are formed.
