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).

How many sperm are formed by a cell that undergoes meiosis?
For one gamete that undergoes meiosis, 4 sperm cellsresult.
Describe the differences between the original cell that undergoes meiosis and the daughter cells produced by meiosis?
The original cell that undergoes meiosis holds the original copy of DNA. The daughter cells receive the replicated DNA strands.
One cell that undergoes meiosis will yield how many independent cells?
A gamete (sex cell) that underwent meiosis will yield four independent cells.
How many daughter cells are produced when a mouse cell undergoes meiosis?
2
A cell with a diploid number of 20 undergoes meiosis. this will produce?
It will have 4 daughter cells and 10 chromosome per daughter cell because the number of chromosomes you start with is doubled and then divided by four.
What are structures inside the nucleus that duplicate when a cell undergoes mitosis and separate when a cell undergoes meiosis?
what duplicates when a call undergoes mitosis and separate when a cell undergoes meiosis

What would not be true of a cell that undergoes meiosis?
Lots of stuff
How does a haplontic animal grow?
Zygotic meiosis is the reproductive cycle of the haplontic life cycle. Gametes from adult haploid individuals unite forming the diploid zygote. The zygote undergoes meiosis and generates four haploid cells that by mitosis develop into adult individuals. Therefore in the zygotic meiosis the cell that undergoes meiosis is the zygote and the gametes are formed by mitosis. TDLR: Effectively, two Haploid cells combine to form a diploid cell which then undergoes meiosis, except the result; gametes are the end product.

How can you tell which type of life cycle an organism undergoes?
The type of sexual life cycle that a eukaryotic organism has depends on the type of cell that undergoes meiosis and on when meiosis occurs.
