Where can you find a woman's egg cells?
it is either mitosis or meiosis. it is either mitosis or meiosis.
Does meiosis have two cell divisions?
ok, first of all mitosis only happens in asexual reproduction. In mitosis the parent cell divides into two daughter cells with the extract genetic make up hence creating a clones. This is more in depth explanation but in a summary, the parent cell before it divide, each chromosome produces a replica of itself. the replica is called chromatids. The chromatids now line across the middle of the cell. finally the cell splits across the middle and the chromatids become the chromosomes of the daughter cells. hope this information some what helps you, well based on the above you can pin point the relevant information to help yourself. If not hope you find what your looking for else where.

Where online can one find images of Meiosis 1?
One can find images of the different stages of Meiosis by looking in biology text books. One may also find these images by looking on scientific sites.
Why meiosis is called modified mitosis?
Meiosis is very similar to mitosis. Meiosis produces two "half-cells" after the first cell division. Mitosis, however produces two fully genetically capable cells. After mitosis, the cell products can reproduce by themselves. Meiosis is a "modified" version of mitosis, meant for genetic diversity. Mitosis probably existed way before meiosis, simply because it is easier to execute. Meiosis produces what is called a gamete. These gametes, or 'sex cells' cannot reproduce by themselves. These half-cells are meant to be combined with the complementary gamete (egg with sperm) to maximize genetic diversity and promote evolution. Mitosis is the simplified version of meiosis, and meiosis is the "modified" mitosis. You often find mitosis in simple organisms, meant solely for reproduction purposes. Meiosis is more common in evolutionarily advanced organisms, such as mammals.
How is binary fission prokaryotic organisms similar to and different from mitosis and cytokinesis in single-celled eukaryotic organisms?
In what way does prokaryotic fission resemble eukaryotic mitosis?
What are similarities and differences of mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis vs. MeiosisBoth mitosis and meiosis are mechanisms that describe cell division. The difference is particularly noticeable when one looks at the DNA in the cell's nucleus. After mitosis, each of the daughter cells will have exact same DNA strands, while after meiosis each daughter cell will only have half of the DNA strands. (Sometimes the division is not exactly half/half, but that is not important for this answer). Because meiosis only has half the information that the parent cell had, the cell is (as far as we know) unable to reproduce by itself. The reason for meiosis is for reproduction of a multi-cellular organism as well as genetic diversity due to crossing over. One daughter cell (from the male of the species) will try to find a compatible daughter cell (from the female of the species) and fertilize it. This then becomes and embryo and the specie has successfully reproduced. And this is how you, the reader, came into existence.Other characteristics:Parent cell - full set of chromosomes in both mitosis and meiosis (2n).Number of divisions - mitosis 1; meiosis 2.Chromosome number of daughter cells - mitosis full set (2n) and meiosis half set (n).Crossing over - mitosis no; meiosis yesPaired homologues - mitosis no; meiosis yesDNA of daughter cells - mitosis identical to parent; meiosis daughter cells differentNumber of DNA replications - mitosis 1; meiosis 2Number of daughter cells - mitosis 2; meiosis 4Type of cells - mitosis somatic; meiosis sex cells
How do you Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis and discuss the importance of each process to a living organism?
I am trying to find the answer to this question, so when you get it please let me know.
Which processes requires DNA replication?
the DNA molecule splits down the middle, or unzips, into two strands. l V each strand serves as a template or model, to produce the new strands. l V two new DNA strands are produced, following the rules of base pairing.

Give example of mitosis cell division?
Both Mitosis and Mitosis are mechanisms that describe cell division. The difference is particularly noticeable when one looks at the DNA in the cell's nucleus. After mitosis, each of the daughter cells will have exactly the same DNA strands, while after meiosis each daughter cell will only have half of the DNA strands, sometime the division is not exactly half and half, but that is not really on the right subject. Because meiosis only has half the information that the parent cell had, the call is unable to reproduce by itself. The reason for meiosis is for reproduction of a multi-cellular organism. One daughter cell, from the male of the sides, will try to find a compatible daughter cell, from the female side, and fertilize it. This then becomes an embryo and the specie has succesessfully reproduced.
