mitosis occurs in the somatic cells-normal cells of the body and the meiosis occurs in the reproductive cells of the body.
as a result, mitosis results in cells containing the same number of sets of chromosomes as in the parent cell, while meiosis results in cells containing half the number of sets of chromosomes as the parent cell. for example, in humans, somatic cells contain two sets of chromosomes, one set from the mother and one from the father. mitosis results in daughter cells containing two sets of chromosomes. germ cells (cells which will become eggs or sperm) also contain two sets of chromosomes, but then undergo meiosis, resulting in daughter cells that contain only one set of chromosomes.

Mitosis reslts in 2 identical cells, meiosis results in 4 cells with half the number of chromosomes of the original cell.
So mitosis produces 2 diploid cells, meiosis produces 4 haploid cells.
Mitosis is growth, meiosis is production of sex cells.

How does a chromosome control cell processes?
A chromosome controls cell processes by biological processes such as mitosis and meiosis. These cell processes are what direct cell processes such as cell growth and division.
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 is the process of cell reproduction where cell splits into two daughter cells.?
Cell division. Note: It is NOT mitosis since mitosis refers to the division of the nuclei, and not the cells.
Cell division and chromosome duplication?
duplecadiothe answer is........... 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.
Mitosis is a process of what?
the identcal replication of one cell to greate a genetially identical daughter cell x
What is the division of a body cell?
Mitosis is the term for division of a body cell.
Does cell replacement occur in mitosis or meiosis?
Its meiosis. Mitosis is cell division.
Why should the term cell division and mitosis should not be used interchangeably?
Mitosis is the process of cell division and is completed by the cell completely dividing.
How does a chromosome control cell processes?
A chromosome controls cell processes by biological processes such as mitosis and meiosis. These cell processes are what direct cell processes such as cell growth and division.
Cell division that is further divided into more stages is called?
Mitosis is the process of cell division. There are 6 stages:InterphaseProphasePrometaphaseMetaphaseAnaphaseTelophase
What kind of cell division when the cell is not dividing?
:Mitosis is the cell division which did not divided the cell.: Reduction Division is the cell division which divided the cell into half.
What process of cell division produces an exact replica of the cell?
Mitosis produces two identical daughter cells. You can remember that the form of cell division that produces two identical cells has a plus sign in it...the "t." Then you can remember that you get one cell plus another just like it.
What is the difference between cell division and mitosis?
cell division includes mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is with one parent cell and meiosis is with 2 parent cells.
What cell division process goes through Mitosis?
Somatic cell division
