Yes, meiosis is a part of the cell cycle that involves the division of cells to produce gametes (sex cells) with half the number of chromosomes.

Is meiosis a part of cell cycle?

It depends, Meiosis is part of the sex cells cycle (Sperm and Egg) but it requires sexual reproduction (2 parents) as apposed to all the other human cell's way of reproduction, Mitosis. Meiosis is how a sex cell divides, so it is part of the sex cell's cell cycle, but not all cells


In which stage of the cell cycle, mitosis or meiosis, does DNA replication occur?

DNA replication occurs in the S phase of the cell cycle, which is part of both mitosis and meiosis.


Which process occurs first in the cell cycle: mitosis or meiosis?

Mitosis occurs first in the cell cycle before meiosis.


What are the two types of cell division that are part of the cell cycle?

The two types of cell division that are part of the cell cycle are mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is responsible for cell growth and asexual reproduction, resulting in two identical daughter cells. Meiosis, on the other hand, occurs only in sex cells and results in genetic diversity through the formation of haploid gametes.


When does the first cell division in meiosis occur?

The first cell division in meiosis, known as meiosis I, occurs after the DNA in the cell has been replicated during the S phase of the cell cycle. Meiosis I involves the separation of homologous chromosomes.

Cell cycle consist of cytokinesis and what else?

mitosis and meiosis


When is interphase part of a cell cycle?

Interphase occurs before and after cell division (mitosis or meiosis). It is the longest phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows, replicates its DNA, and carries out normal cellular functions.


Does mitosis takes up most of the cell cycle?

Actually a combination of mitosis and meiosis take up most of the cell cycle.


What are the steps in the diploid life cycle?

The steps in the diploid life cycle are meiosis, to gametes, to fertilization, to diploid, to reproductive cell. The main steps are Meiosis and Fertilization.


In meiosis 1 what events occurs of interphase?

There is only one interphase, and it's the same as other cells: to grow, function, and replicate DNA. Meiosis is only a small part of cell cycle and interphase is not included in it. There are, however, two different phases in meiosis, such as prophase I and prophase II.


How is the chromosome number halved during which specific process in the cell cycle?

The chromosome number is halved during the process of meiosis in the cell cycle.
