Interkinesis
Interkinesis or interphase II is a period of rest that cells enter during meiosis . It is the abbreviated interphase that occurs between meiosis I and II. No DNA replication occurs during this stage of Meiosis ..
Meiocyte
A meiocyte is a Cell biology cell which is an immediate precursor to a gamete . It is so named because meiosis occurs in the cell. A meiocyte goes through meiosis 2 divisions to form a tetrad genetics ...

Gametid
A gametid is a kind of germ cell that results from the meiosis of a gametocyte . Male gametids are spermatid s, while female gametids are ootid s. The development of a gametids is called gametidogenesis ..
