A meiotic division produces four daughter cells.
Four daughter cells (gametes) are produced. These have half the genetic material of the original cell.
Two daughter cells are produced by Meiosis I, and four by Meiosis II.
By counting the number of daughter cells resulting from mitotic and meiotic division
Meiosis produces 4 cells from one mother cell. Each of these four cells has half the genetic material as the original.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces haploid cells.
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)
Meiosis II results in four haploid (N) daughter cells.
Meiosis
By counting the number of daughter cells resulting from mitotic and meiotic division
Mitotic cell division produces two genetically identical daughter cells that are genetically identical to their parent cell. The daughter cells that result from mitotic cell division are 2n, having two sets of chromosomes. Meiotic cell division produces four genetically non-identical cells that are 1n, having only one set of chromosomes. The parent cell for meiotic cell division is 2n.
The type of cell division that produces daughter cells is MEIOSIS.
The daughter cells that result from mitotic cell division are genetically identical. The daughter cells that result from meiotic cell division are genetically unique.
Meiosis produces 4 cells from one mother cell. Each of these four cells has half the genetic material as the original.
Meiosis is the type of cell division that produces haploid cells.
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)
Meiosis II results in four haploid (N) daughter cells.
Meiotic division is called reduction division because the daughter cells (called 'gametes') are haploid, that is, carry half the number of chromosomes of the parent cells. Gametes carry one chromosome of each homologous pair, whereas the diploid parent cells carry both.
somatic cells
Sperm is not formed during mitosis. Mitosis is a type of cell division that occurs in somatic cells (non-reproductive cells) and produces two genetically identical daughter cells. Sperm formation, known as spermatogenesis, involves meiotic division, which produces four genetically different haploid cells called spermatids that later mature into sperm cells.
