How much of the parent's nuclear material does each daughter cell get?
One Half
How many half-lives have occurred in a rock containing one-fourth parent material and three-fourths daughter material?
2 half-lives have.
What is another word for meiosis?
reduction division. this is because the daughter cells end up with half the genetic material of their parent.
If the s phase were eliminated from the cell cycle the daughter cells would be?
the daughter cells would contain half the genetic material found in the parent cell because the S phase is the phase in which DNA is duplicated
What does meiosis introduce into the daughter cells that Mitosis does not?
variationvarietyMeiosis introduces genetic variation. Mitosis produces daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. However, meiosis produces offspring with half the genetic material from each parent - and therefore much more diversity.
When a cell divides through mitosis each daughter cell receives half of the parent cell's genetic code is it true?
No. Due to DNA replication before mitosis, each daughter cell receives the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. So if the parent cell has 38 chromosomes, the daughter cells will have 38 chromosomes.
What is the difference in DNA between parent cells and daughter cells in meiosis?
Parent cells are diploids, and daughter cells are haploids. Therefore, the daughter cells have half of the the number of chromosomes as the parent cells. (chromosomes are DNA)
In sexual reproduction offspring are genetically different from the parents. This is because?
Each parent contributes only half of their genetic material to the offspring and the merging of genetic material from each parent may result in a traits different from what the generic material invoked in each parent.
How does the number of chromosomes in the daughter cell compare with those in the parent cell?
daughter cells have half the number of cells that a parent cell has
What is the term for the time required for half of a parent isotope to decay into a daughter product?
it's half life
Are the daughter cells resulting from meiosis the same as parent cells?
no they have half the number of chromosomes than their parent cells
Which Forms cells with half the chromosome number of the parent cell?
Daughter cells
