Sexual Reproduction

Sexual Reproduction is reproduction where two parents are involved. Because there are two parents, the genetic material of the children are a mix of the two parents. This results in genetic variation in a species. This is what allows humans to all be unique.

Meiosis

Meiosis is the process in which gametes (sex cells) are made. They contain only half the chromosomes as the original cell, therefor having 23 single chromosomes. TODO: improve description of meiosis
