Explanation:

1. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces gametes, or reproductive cells. The process produces haploids, which have half the number of chromosomes as the parent. Genetic recombination occurs in meiosis, where there is an exchange of genetic information between the chromosomes, which bring about genetic diversity.

2. Mitosis is also a type of cell division, but unlike in meiosis, they produce clones of the parent cell. They produce diploids and this occurs in body cells. The purpose of mitosis is for growth, repair and asexual reproduction.

3. Oogamy is a form of sexual reproduction. What you would observe with oogamy is that one sex cell or "gamete" is bigger than the other gamete and the bigger gamete is non-motile or it can't move, while the other can. The egg cell for example is larger than the sperm cell, but it cannot move, while the sperm cell can.

4. The female gamete is called the ovum, plural form would be ova. This is also known as the egg cell. It is non-motile, so that means it cannot move. It's main purpose is to be fertilized by the sperm cell.  

5. Sexual reproduction is the fusion of two gametes, which produces a fertilized egg, or a zygote. These gametes are haploid cells, which are produced in meiosis, and they each have half the genetic information of their parent cell. Thus the offspring produced will be genetically different from their parents.

6. The sperm cell is the male gamete. It has a flagella, which is like a tail that helps it move.  It's main purpose is to fertilize an egg cell.

[ answer ]

foliated

[ explanation ]

foliation forms in a rock when pressure squeezes the rock together. the rock then has a design of many different color little lines. there are three types of foliated rock. the types are slate, schist, and gneiss. each type of foliated rock is different based on grain size and foliation characteristics. the lines appear when the rock has been under pressure.
