they're the same (23) so when sperm and egg combine it give us our 46 chromosomes
Half the content Haploid content
meiosis is the process in which a parent cell divides to form (haploid) daughter cells having half the number of chromosomes as compared to the parent cell.These daughter cells produced by the process of meiosis are called gametes.When the male and female gametes fuse together they form the diploid zygote.This process is called fertilization.
The daughter cells in meiosis have half the number of sets of chromosomes compared to the parent cell. This means that in humans, the daughter cells would have 23 pairs of chromosomes instead of the 46 pairs in the parent cell.
Daughter cells in mitosis are exact copies of the parent cell; therefore, they have the same number of chromosomes.
Homologous chromosomes are separated at the end of meiosis 1. At the end of meiosis 2, the sister chromatids are separated. At the end of meiosis 1: the daughter cells contain 2n number of chromosomes (where n is the haploid number for that particular organism) At the end of meiosis 2: the daughter cells contain n number of chromosomes.
The number of daughter cells created by meiosis is four. These cells, unlike in mitosis which produces only two identical daughter cells, are all different from their parent cell.
Because daughter nucleii have the half of chromosomal number of mother nucleus
No. Mitosis produces identical daughter cells - same DNA and same amount. Only in meiosis does the chromosome number halve.
Meiosis.
Meiosis halves the chromosomal number. So haploid cells are produced
The end result of meiosis is haploid daughter cells with chromosomal combinations different from those originally present in the parent. In sperm cells, four haploid gametes are produced.
To conserve the chromosomal number. Otherwise it will doubled
They results from meiosis. They have half number of chromosomes.
Gametes don't undergo Meiosis, but are CREATED in Meiosis.Gametes should be haploid. Otherwise chromosomal number will be doubled in offspring
Meiosis consists of two consecutive nuclear divisions, and its product is four daughter cells (instead of two like in mitosis) , each with half as many chromosomes as typical body cells. Thus, meiosis reduces the chromosomal number by half (from 2n to n) in gametes.
After the completion of meiosis, four daughter cells are formed. These four daughter cells have haploid (half) number of chromosomes in them.
Yes, the process of meiosis results in four daughter cells with a haploid number of chromosomes. In contrast, mitosis results in two daughter cells with a diploid number of chromosomes.
Meiosis results in 4 haploid daughter cells with only half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.Mitosis results in 2 diploid daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.meiosis 4 and mitosis 2In mitosis, the daughter cells (2 produced per cell division) contain 2 copies of each chromosome (similar to the parent cell before division)In meosis, the daughter cells (2 produced per cell division) contain only one copy of each chromosome (half the chromosomal content of the parent cell)Meiosis results in 4 haploid daughter cells with only half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.Mitosis results in 2 diploid daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.
