Does DNA replication occur before the division of the nucleus in both meiosis and mitosis?

The cell cycle consists of interphase followed by cell division (in this case mitosis). it's true that DNA replication occurs during interphase, however interphase itself has 3 phases:
1. G1(=gap1): when the cell grows and fuctions
2. S (=Synthesis) when DNA replication occurs (as synthesizing anew DNA copy)
3. G2 (gap2): when the cell accumulates nutrients before the division itself.

What are some minor differences between meiosis and mitosis?
mitosis are division of the cell in which the nucleus is divided into two cells where as in meiosis nucleus are further divide and divide
When does DNA replecation occur in meiosis?
DNA replication always occurs at cell nucleus itself
In Mitosis What organelle does the division of the nucleus?
In mitosis, the division of the nucleus is carried out by the spindle fibers. These fibers are formed by the microtubules and are responsible for separating the duplicated chromosomes into two sets in the process called cytokinesis.
What is the division of the cytoplasm and organelles of a cell called?
Mitosis is where the nucleus divides. Meiosis is cell division to make gametes (sex cells) and replication is just for when the DNA replicates. Cytokinesis is definitely the process where the cytoplasm divides.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081111092841AAOLHj7
Meiosis divides the chromosomes in the nucleus how many times?
Two successive nuclear divisions occur, Meiosis I (Reduction) and Meiosis II (Division)
What is mitosis and meiosis a division of?
The nucleus.
The division of the cell nucleus called?
Mitosis is the process that refers to the splitting of the nucleus, in which two daughter nuclei are produced. Cytokinesis refers to the division of the membrane and cytoplasm.
Wich statement is true of both mitosis and meiosis?
DNA replication occurs before the division of the nucleus.
What are some minor differences between meiosis and mitosis?
mitosis are division of the cell in which the nucleus is divided into two cells where as in meiosis nucleus are further divide and divide
What is meosis and mitosis?
meiosis is where sex cells are made -there are 8 steps in meiosis mitosis is where the nucleus divides -there are 4 steps in mitosis they both make chromosomes
When does DNA replecation occur in meiosis?
DNA replication always occurs at cell nucleus itself
Mitosis is a process of what?
the identcal replication of one cell to greate a genetially identical daughter cell x
In Mitosis What organelle does the division of the nucleus?
In mitosis, the division of the nucleus is carried out by the spindle fibers. These fibers are formed by the microtubules and are responsible for separating the duplicated chromosomes into two sets in the process called cytokinesis.
What other names is division of a nucleus called other than mitosis or meiosis?
It is also known as karyokinesis(karyo=nucleus,kinesis=division).
Another word that has the same meaning as the word mitosis and refers to division of the nucleus is?
Amitosis, meiosis
The division of the nucleus in reproductive cells is called?
Mitosis is the division of cell's nucleus and results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis is where the nucleus divides to form 4 gametes (in females, only 1 survives). These daughter cells are different from each other. Meiosis, on the other hand, is the division of cell's nucleus which results in 4 different cells. In males, All four becomes sperm. In females, all but one becomes egg.
What is the division of the cytoplasm and organelles of a cell called?
Mitosis is where the nucleus divides. Meiosis is cell division to make gametes (sex cells) and replication is just for when the DNA replicates. Cytokinesis is definitely the process where the cytoplasm divides.http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20081111092841AAOLHj7
