Meiosis is the kind of cell division which permits sexual reproduction as it reduces to a half the total number of chromosomes of the species making potential the combination of two gametes to create a new individual. (In several beings meiosis makes haploid gametophytes which through mitosis produce gametes. Still in that situation the function of meiosis is the similar: to provide cells with half of the total number of chromosomes of the species with separation of the homologous.)  Gametogenesis, it is the name given to the procedure of gamete production.
