Unit 6- Process 6: Meiosis


Meiosis is a process that occurs after karyogamy, and consists almost on its opposite. while karyogamy joins the 2 haploid nucleis inside the basidias, Meiosis happens when the diploid basidias divide the diploid nuclei into 4 haploid nuclei, this process occurs to prevent the cells to have too many genes, these process not only occurs in fungi but also in animals or plants. when the cells are divided thay are ready for the next stage.
