Meiosis is a type of sexual reproduction in which the number of chromosomes are reduced by half by means of separation of homologous chromosomes, producing 2 haploid cells
whereas
Mitosis is a process of asexual reproduction in which a single cell divides into two producing two similar cells with equal number of chromosomes resulting in 2 diploid cells.
Meiosis produces female egg cells or male sperm cells.
Mitosis produces all cells other than sex cells.

In which phase of meiosis does crossing over occur.which results from this process?
Meiosis is broken up into 2 phases. This include meiosis 1 and meiosis two. After the meiosis 1 phase, prophase 1 begins.
What Meiosis occurs in .?
meiosis occurs in the overies and the testies.....there is 2 stage of meiosis...meiosis 1 and meiosis
How many chromosomes are at the end of meiosis II?
A diploid organism have: 2n chromosome after meiosis 1, the gametes would still have 2n as DNA replication occured Meiosis 1 can be assumed to be the same process as Mitosis. after meiosis 2, the gametes would have n (1/2 of 2n), as the second meiosis would not include any form of DNA replication.
Is a type of cell division that produce gametes?
That is meiosis.
What are characteristics of a microscope?
Characteristics of a microscope include Illuminator, Eyepiece Lens and Tunnel, Objective Lenses and Diaphragm or Iris.
Why is meiosis so important to sexual reproduction?
Meiosis is what makes us different from each other. Without meiosis, we would all look the same with the same characteristics and personality.
In which phase of meiosis does crossing over occur.which results from this process?
Meiosis is broken up into 2 phases. This include meiosis 1 and meiosis two. After the meiosis 1 phase, prophase 1 begins.
The fact that offspring may have characteristics somewhat different from those of their parents is primarily due to?
meiosis.
What are some characteristics of organism?
Many celled organisms, or eukaryotes, have a bounded nucleus and can use the processes of mitosis and meiosis.

What is the unique characteristics of a star fish?
It is an animal- which typically reproduce using meiosis- which can use mitosis to duplicate itself if a limb is detached.
What is meiosis about?
Meiosis is Sexual Reproduction, unlike Mitosis, that is responsible for cell growth and other functions. Meiosis has the same phases as Mitosis except that it undergoes those phase twice (Meiosis l and ll). This results in 4 daughter cells, unlike Mitosis which results in only 2 daughter cells. Also, in Mitosis the daughter cells are identical to the original cell, while in Meiosis, it increases genetic variation, because it has characteristics of both parent cells.

Asexual reproduction does not include?
Meiosis (chromosome halving). Advantage: mass rapid colonization. Disadvantage: no diversity.
What are the two distinct stages of meiosis?
Meiosis I and meiosis II
