What is the given to the original cell before it divides?

In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell (mitosis), and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes (meiosis).

What are the results and implications of meiosis?

Meiosis is the process of dividing a diploid cell into haploid cells. The main results of meiosis are four haploid cells. Genetically, these cells differ from the diploid cell and from each other.


Can all cells in an adult undergo mitotic division at any given time?

No, not all cells are capable of mitotic division in an adult. Certain types of cells, called permanent cells (eg. heart muscle cells and brain cells) can not undergo mitosis in an adult. Another type of cell that cannot undergo mitosis is the mammalian red blood cell - which has no nucleus so cannot divide.

How are human cells formed?

Every single cell on the planet is directly related, in an unbroken chain, to a single progenitor cell. This cell was the very first cell that had the ability to survive and replicate itself, and existed likely over a billion years ago. Given that this is the case, every human cell came from a human cell before it. Cells divide to give rise to new cells. This process of division is called mitosis in non-sex cells (everything but sperm in men and eggs in women).
