Does meiosis occur in all growing organisms?
No, meiosis does not occur in all growing organisms. Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms to produce gametes (eggs and sperm). Organisms that reproduce asexually, such as bacteria and some plants, do not undergo meiosis.
How does meiosis help genetic?
Meiosis is the division of the sex cells (sperm and egg). Meiosis produces gametes with one half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. A female gamete and male gamete will then undergo fertilization and create a zygote. (not limited to just humans, meiosis occurs in sexually reproducing organisms).
When a cell undergoes meiosis what will be the result?
Mitoses does take place in sexually reproducing organisms. There are two types of cells in your body, somatic cells (heart, skin, bones, etc.) and sex cells (eggs and sperm). Somatic cells all use mitosis to make more of themselves. Sex cells use meiosis to make more of themselves. If sex cells used mitosis instead of meiosis they would have too many chromosomes and the baby would have problems (if it survived at all).
Do prokaryotic organisms undergo meiosis?
It must or cells would not be able to reproduce. Eukaryotic cells replicate by mitosis. Prokaryotic cells replicate via binary fission.
What cell undergo meiosis?
reproductive cells or you can also say the 23rd pair in the chromosome of the reproductive cell under goes the meiosis and the 23rd pair is called sex chromosomeGerm cells are the only cells that can undergo meiosis as well as mitosis. Germ cells produce gametes. Eukaryotic organisms that sexually reproduce have cells that undergo meiosis rather than mitosis.
When do organisms go through the mitosis process?
mitosis in sexually reproducing organisms is used for growth into a multicellular organism from the initial zygote. mitosis is also used for repair in response to a wound, etc. mitosis is used in asexually reproducing organisms for reproduction.the whole process
How do the majority of eukaryotic organisms reproduce?
Majority of eukaryotes undergo meiosis for sexual reproduction.But some undergo mitosis for asexual reproduction.
What boby cells undergo meiosis?
Body cells do not undergo meiosis. Reproductive cells undergo meiosis, body cells, mitosis.
Where do cells undergo meiosis?
The body of cells that undergo meiosis are sex cells. The two sex cells found in most eukaryotic organisms are sperm cell and egg cell.
What process do cells undergo when organisms grow?
They should be remain diploid.So they undergo mitosis.
What human cell can undergo meiosis?
Germ cells in the gonads (ovaries and testes) undergo meiosis.
What type of cells undergo meiosis?
Cells which produce gametes (sex cells) undergo meiosis.
