No, after fertilization, the diploid cell does not go through meiosis. Instead, the diploid zygote undergoes mitosis, which is the process of cell division that results in two identical diploid daughter cells. Meiosis occurs in germ cells to produce haploid gametes (sperm and eggs) for sexual reproduction, while fertilization combines these haploid cells to form a diploid zygote.
The process that results in 4 haploid gametes is called meiosis. During meiosis, a single diploid cell undergoes two rounds of cell division to produce four genetically unique haploid cells. This process is essential for sexual reproduction in eukaryotic organisms.
Haploid cells formed by meiosis combine to produce a diploid cell.
False. At the end of meiosis II, two daughter cells are produced from each original cell that underwent meiosis I. This results in a total of four haploid daughter cells being produced in total from one original diploid cell.
Yes, it is true that during cell division (mitosis), genetic material is replicated and divided equally, resulting in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. However, in meiosis, a type of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells), genetic recombination and independent assortment can result in daughter cells that are genetically different from each other and the parent cell.
Cell division resulting in daughter cells that have different genetic material is called meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in germ cells to produce haploid daughter cells with unique genetic combinations. This process is important for genetic diversity and the formation of gametes for sexual reproduction.
No, meiosis is a specific stage in the process of sexual reproduction. It is the cell division process that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Meiosis is followed by fertilization, where two gametes combine to form a zygote with a complete set of chromosomes.
Both mitosis and meiosis are processes of cell division. They involve the replication and distribution of genetic material. Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis results in four genetically diverse daughter cells.
This statement is false. Meiosis is a process in which a diploid cell divides to produce four haploid cells. It involves two rounds of cell division, resulting in genetic variation through crossing over and independent assortment.
Four megaspores are formed from meiotic division of megapore mother cell which is diploid. We know that diploid cells undergo meiosis to give haploid cells. So, it seems to me that megaspores are haploid.
After cell division, each daughter cell will contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Therefore, if the parent cell has 50 chromosomes, each daughter cell will also have 50 chromosomes. This is true for both mitosis and meiosis (in the case of the haploid cells produced, they would have 25 chromosomes).
Meiosis in bryophytes, such as mosses and liverworts, occurs within the sporangium or capsule located on the sporophyte generation. The sporangium produces spores through meiosis, and these spores ultimately develop into the gametophyte generation.
