The chromosome number after meiosis is denoted as?

Multiply the diploids by the haploids and divide by 2 to get the chromosome number.

Chromosome number that results from meiosis is called?

Meiosis reduces the number of chromosome sets from two (diploid), to one (haploid). In mitosis the daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell, but meiosis produces cells that differ genetically from the parent cell as well as each other. In the final stage of meiosis II there end up being 4n daughter cells. So remember mitosis is diploid and meiosis is haploid.


The chromosome number is reduced from diploid to haploid during what?

meiosis I is reduction, meiosis II is division.

How does the significance of meiosis maintained the chromosome number?

No. Meiosis results in halving of chromosome number. Chromosome number after one round of meiosis is half that of original chromosome number. Generally, meiosis takes place during gamete formation. So when two gametes fuse, they lead to restoration of the chromosome number. Hence chromosome number can be maintained in sexually reproducing organisms.


Do diploid cells undergo in mitosis?

In fact diploid cells are divided by meiosis. The process of meiosis is to divide a diploid cell into four haploid cells to produce gametes. In the second stage of meiosis it divides the two cell into to equal parts without duplicating the new genetic material. If you did this with a haploid cell, you would end up with a 1/4 of the original number of chromosomes. For example if a human haploid chromosome divided it would only have 11.5 chromosomes.


What does meiosis create with a set of chromosomes?

Starting with a diploid number of chromosomes (two of each chromosome) and a single cell, the process of meiosis will result in four cells with a haploid number of chromosomes (one of each chromosome). This allows genetic recombination through the combining of gametes from different somatic organisms.


Is the end product of mitosis haploid or diploid?

Mitosis produces DIPLOID cells- remember in mitosis your INCREASING the number of CELLS but the chromosome number is the SAME as the parentso a parent that has a (DIPLOID number of 10)will produce at the end of mitosis will produce 2 children with a diploid number of (10)That is why Mitosis is CONSERVATIVE.So in actuality, 1 diploid cell will produce 2 diploid cells in mitosisThe above is only true if the starting cell is itself diploid. However there are plenty of instances, especially in plants, in which cells that are haploid (the ones that give rise to pollen and egg, and endosperm nuclei, for example) or multiploid (hexaploid wheat, for example) undergo mitosis, and the cells that are produced have the same ploidy as the starting cell. Always. As noted above, mitosis is conservative. However, you ought not assume that you started with a diploid cell.
