Cells that undergo mitotic division but not meiotic division are called?
Somatic cells undergo mitotic division but not meiotic division. Meiotic division is only seen in germ cells to produce gametes.
Name two animal germ-line cells that can go through meiotic division?
Sperm cells in males and egg cells in females can go through meiotic division.
What is it called when sex cells divide?
meiotic division
Meiotic cell division in animals is directly responsible for the?
Meiotic cell division in animals is directly responsible for the producing sex cells.
How would you distinguish human mitotic cells from human meiotic cells?
Human mitotic cells undergo cell division to produce two identical daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. In contrast, human meiotic cells undergo two rounds of cell division to produce four haploid daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiotic cells are involved in the formation of gametes (sperm and egg cells) for sexual reproduction, while mitotic cells are involved in growth, repair, and asexual reproduction.
A meiotic division produces how many daughter cells?
A meiotic division produces four daughter cells.
What cell division produces cells?
Meiosis
What is the process for the meiotic process of forming female sex cells called?
Oogenesis.
Why are germ cells diploid prior to their first meiotic division?
Germ cells go through DNA replication during interphase before their first meiotic division. This results in them being diploid, with two sets of chromosomes, in order to ensure genetic diversity in the resulting haploid daughter cells produced after meiosis.
What types of cells are we made out of?
Humans are made from tissue of different types in different parts of the body. Each type of tissue is made from different cells.
What the definition of oocytes?
Cells in an ovary that may undergo meiotic division to form an ovum.
What is the process for making sex cells with half the number of chromosomes?
meiotic cell division
