Mitosis was first discovered and meiosis evolved out of mitosis. Mitosis stands for the first division of a cell into two genetic identically cells. Meiosis stands for two divisions into four genetic different cells.

∙ 14y agowell it depends . meiosis only occurs in sex cells while mitosis occurs in somatic cells so it might be that mitosis occurs first to produce an organism and then sex cells under go meiosis at the time of gamte formation

The cytoplasmic division is referred to as?
Cytoplasmic division is also called cytokinesis. This is the stage of mitosis in which the cell splits into two daughter cells.
What purpose does mitosis serve in development and growth?
Mitosis is the process of cell division that occurs in living things except in the gonads (sex cells). In mitosis the "daughter" cells have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. During mitosis, a cell splits in two passing on the genetic material.
What is the cells nucleus divides to forms two identical nuclei during the stage of the cell cycle?
The process of cell division which divides the nucleus into two nuclei is called mitosis. Mitosis only happens in eukaryotic cells.
What cell division process goes through Mitosis?
Somatic cell division
Which type of cell division is chemotherapy meiosis or mitosis?
Chemotherapy may or may not affect meiosis and mitosis. It is not a type of cell division.
What happens to the cell in cell division?
Mitosis followed by cytokinesis.
What process happens in the cell before cell division takes place?
mitosis
What happens during m phase (mitosis) of the cell cycle?
Nuclear division by mitosis or meiosis
Why should cell division and mitosis should not be used interchangeably?
Not all cell division is mitosis so using the terms interchangeably could be incorrect in some instances.
The cytoplasmic division is referred to as?
Cytoplasmic division is also called cytokinesis. This is the stage of mitosis in which the cell splits into two daughter cells.
After mitosis is completed what happens to the original cell?
Nothing really happens to a cell after mitosis. The cell itself undergoes division to produce two new cells with the same number of chromosomes as it did before division. So, nothing really is left of the cell after division or mitosis.
How does mitosis relate to cell division short answer?
Mitosis relates to cell division because mitosis is the process in cell division where the nucleus divides into 2 nuclei.
What is the type of cell division responsible for growth and repair?
Mitosis is the type of cell division essential for repair of tissues.
Where does mitosis take place in the human cell?
Most of the activity occurs in the middle of the cell itself.
What purpose does mitosis serve in development and growth?
Mitosis is the process of cell division that occurs in living things except in the gonads (sex cells). In mitosis the "daughter" cells have the same number of chromosomes as the original cell. During mitosis, a cell splits in two passing on the genetic material.
Mitosis is a process of what?
the identcal replication of one cell to greate a genetially identical daughter cell x
What is the cells nucleus divides to forms two identical nuclei during the stage of the cell cycle?
The process of cell division which divides the nucleus into two nuclei is called mitosis. Mitosis only happens in eukaryotic cells.
