Inferences are steps in reasoning, moving from premises to conclusions. Charles Sanders Peirce divided inference into three kinds: deduction, induction, and abduction. Deduction is inference deriving logical conclusions from premises known or assumed to be true, with the laws of valid inference being studied in logic.
Meiosis is the process by which most eukaryotic organisms, those with cells having an organized nucleus, produces sex cells, the male and female gametes. Cells normally have two copies of each chromosome, one donated from each parent.
Meiosis is the process that forms gametes, or sex cells. Sex cells are what combine during fertilization to produce offspring. Meiosis occurs in the ovaries/testes. In humans, gametes are eggs and sperm. All of the cells in our body are diploid (2n). This means that each chromosome has a homologous pair.
