Meiosis cell division is called reduction division because in this cell division the cells got from the parents cell is divided into half. So the daughter cells is haploid(n). Thus, meiosis cell division is called reduction division.
According to Wikipedia:"In biology, meiosis (pronounced /maɪˈoʊsɨs/) is a process of reductional division in which the number of chromosomes per cell is cut in half."
mitosis is the process of cell division where in the chromosomes replicate and get equally distributed into two daughter cells . the chromosome number in each daughter cell is equal to that in the parent cell..i.e. diploid hence mitosis is known as equational division..
There are not two types of meiosis; rather, meiosis is a single process that consists of two sequential divisions: meiosis I and meiosis II. Meiosis I is a reductional division where homologous chromosomes are separated, reducing the chromosome number by half, while meiosis II is an equational division similar to mitosis, where sister chromatids are separated. This process results in four genetically diverse haploid cells from one diploid cell.
Yes. Pollen consists of half the number of chromosomes than are present in the sex cells which is the result of meiosis, a reductional division producing gametes.
Meiosis
Mitosis and Meiosis.
The division of cells to create germ cells is called meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces reproductive cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell, which is essential for sexual reproduction.
It is called meiosis.
No, meiosis is a division of only gametic cells.Mitosis is the cell division of the tissue cells rather all the somatic cells.Meiosis is a reductional division in which the chromosome number of the daughter cell reduces to half.Mitosis restores the original number of chromosomes in the daughter cells. It increase the number of the cells in the population.
Reduction division is the same as meiosis, which is a type of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. This process is important for sexual reproduction.
Meiosis is the cell division process that produces gametes (sperm and eggs) in sexually reproducing organisms. During meiosis, a single diploid cell undergoes two rounds of cell division to produce four haploid daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell.
Meosis is called a reductional division. This means the daughter cells in a meotic cell division have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Parent cell (2n) ------> Meotic cell division ------> 2 daughter cells (n)
