mitosis
no. one egg is fertilized and it splits up later on.
They multiply, a single cell just splits into 2
Mitosis followed by cytokinesis results in two identical daughter cells.
After Mitosis, the result is 2 new, identical, daughter cells. In order for each to be identical, the chromosomes must be copied.
If things are working correctly, yes a cell splits into two identical cells. When things are not working correctly the newly created cell is mutant and can be cancerous.
they should be genetically identical
Identical and Fraternal There are identical and fraternal. Fraternal twins happen when 2 different embryos start growing at the same time, so you get a brother and a sister or 2 sisters or 2 brothers that are the same age. Identical twins happen when 1 embryo splits into 2 embryos when it is only a few cells big, so both babies have the same genes.
The two cells that are produced after mitosis are genetically identical because when the DNA is replicated and the cell splits, the two new cells each end up with 46 chromosomes each, but in meiosis the four cells that are produced are not genetically identical as the chromosomes from the mum and the dad have been shuffled around during the stage of meiosis.
2 diploid cells
the two cells are alike because the mother cell had 2 pairs of each strand of DNA for the two daughter cells. Each daughter cell has the same DNA to carry on the species and to preform mitosis again.
mitosis ends with 2 identical daughter cells and meiosis ends with 4 non-identical sister chromatids.
There are two types of cell division: Meiotic and Mitotic. In Mitosis, one daughter cell will result-- leaving two genetically identical cells. In Meiosis, four haploid ( or cells with 1/2 the normal number of chromosomes) will be produced. These cells are not genetically identical, and are used in sexual reproduction.
