Mitosis occurs in almost all eukaryotic cells. The duplication of chromosomes only occurs during the S phase of interphase in mitosis to form chromatids.

That is why meiosis is called 'reduction division'

In which phase do chromosomes align on the spindle equator?
Chromosomes align on the spindle equator during the metaphase. During the metaphase the chromosomes meet on an imaginary line between the two poles.
How cell reproduce?
Cells reproduce in a number of ways. These ways include asexual reproduction and sexual reproduction. These ways are called mitosis, meiosis, and binary fission.
The stage of the cell cycle that follows mitosis is?
The stages of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. The cell cycle switches from mitosis and interphase (majority of the time.) Interphase consists of 2 stages of growth and one of replicating the chromosomes within the nucleus.
Describe three events that occur during meiosis 1 but not during mitosis?
1.Synapsis and crossing over in prophase I: Homologous chromosomes physically connect and exchange genetic information 2.At the metaphase plate, there are paired homologous chromosomes (tetrads), instead of individual replicated chromosomes 3.At anaphase I, it is homologous chromosomes, instead of sister chromatids, that separate
What happens to chromatin when the cell divides?
Chromosomes pair up with their partners and then divide, and are distributed into cells after 2 nuclear divisions so that 4 cells are formed. Then these develop into gametes. The result is that each gamete contains half the normal number of chromosomes possessed by any ordinary body cell.
What does mitosis do to chromosomes?
double
Mitosis causes chromosomes to?
double A+
What do chromosomes do before dividing in mitosis?
They double into more chromosomes.
Doubled chromosomes first become visile in which step of mitosis?
double chromosomes first become visible in which step of mitosis?
When a cell divides by mitosis how is the chromosome number affected?
In the beginning of mitosis the number of chromosomes double. But since during mitosis the chromosomes are divided between the two daughter cells the number of chromosomes at the end is the same number as the beginning before doubling.
Why do cells need to double their chromosomes before mitosis starts?
They are in need of reproduction.
Do the cells at the end of Mitosis have the same amount of chromosomes as the original cell?
no they usually have double
A cell with 18 chromosomes enters mitosis At the end of mitosis there will be?
It will have 18 chromosomes at the end of mitosis.
If a parent cell has 34 chromosomes at the beginning of mitosishow many chromosomes will the daughter cells have at the end of mitosis?
If you mean after interphase, beginning of mitosis, then each daughter cell would have 17. BUT! Do you mean SINGLE ARMED CHROMOSOMES or double? During prophase, single armed chromosomes condense into double armed chromosomes. If you meant double armed chromosomes, 34 of them, then the answer would be 34 (each, cause it's gonna be single armed)
When during mitosis do chromosomes attach to spindle fibers?
During mitosis a double-stranded chromosome attaches to a spindle fiber centromere.
How many total pairs of chromosomes are in each of the daughter cells that divide under mitosis?
Human? 23 pairs as mitosis means ' to double.'
What guide chromosomes during mitosis?
what guides the chromosomes movement during mitosis
