Is mitosis occurs in both plants and animals?

Yes, mitosis occurs both in plants, as well as animals. Mitosis is the reproduction of an organism's cells. For example, when a woman who is pregnant waits for her child to be born, mitosis occurs. Same thing with plants. Hope that helped!


What occurs in plants and animal mitosis or meiosis?

Mitosis. Meiosis is only concerned in sex cells.


Where does meiosis occur in animals?

Mitosis happens everywhere in animals. Anywhere where new cells are being made mitosis happens. You can remember the difference between mitosis and meiosis by mitosis happens in your toes, meiosis just happens in ovaries and testes.


Is mitosis or meiosis involved in producing the trailing stems leaves and new roots in plants?

I think mitosis because mitosis involves growing which the plant is doing.... sorry if I'm wrong!


Cytokinesis occurs right after?

Cytokinesis is cell division and occurs right after mitosis, it is important in cell division in plants and animals.


Is meiosis constantly occurring?

Meiosis occurs only in specific cells, such as reproductive cells in plants and animals. It is not constantly occurring in all cells in the body.


Does meiosis occur in all growing organisms?

No, meiosis does not occur in all growing organisms. Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms to produce gametes (eggs and sperm). Organisms that reproduce asexually, such as bacteria and some plants, do not undergo meiosis.


Why plants do not make their gametes by meiosis?

plants make their gametes by mitosis. This is because in meiosis the daughter cells only contain half the number of gametes. Plants reproduce by asexual reproduction, so the cells will be identical to the plant. This is done by mitosis


Do pigs use meiosis or mitosis?

Many organisms use mitosis and meiosis. Namely, all eukaryotes probably use mitosis and meiosis. Only bacteria (prokaryotes) would not divide by mitosis and have no mechanism for meiosis as their chromosomes differ from those of eukaryotes.But eukaryotes all have the capacity for mitosis and meiosis. Eukaryotes include all animals, plants, protists and fungi.Thus, since pigs are animals (and are thus eukaryotes), then indeed they have cells that divide by mitosis and meiosis. Their body cells (somatic cells) divide by mitosis (for growth and repair). Their gametes (sperm cells and ova) are produced by meiosis as these cells must be divided to a haploid form before copulation and fertilisation. Two haploid gametes would fuse (fertilisation) to restore the resulting cell (zygote) to a diploid form. The zygote grows into a new piglet via mitosis.


Mitosis in flowering plants is similar to mitosis in animals in that in both?

Centromeres uncouple and chromosomes move apart. This occurs in anaphase in both plants and animals. The answer is not that a cell plate forms, because that only occurs in plant cells. It is not that Synapsis occurs or that the daughter cells have half the number of chromosomes because these only occur in meiosis. Nor is it that large centrioles attach to spindle fibers because plant cells do not have distinct centrioles.


Do somatic cells undergo meiosis?

No, somatic cells do not undergo meiosis. Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that only occurs in germ cells, specifically in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells). Somatic cells undergo mitosis, a different type of cell division responsible for growth, development, and tissue repair in multicellular organisms.


Are microspores and megaspores produced by mitosis or meiosis?

Microspores and megaspores are produced by meiosis. In plants, microspores develop into male gametophytes (pollen), while megaspores develop into female gametophytes (embryo sacs). This process occurs in the reproductive structures of seed plants, where diploid sporophytes undergo meiosis to produce these haploid spores.
