Process of cell division which results in the production of sex cells?
It is a nucleic acid and is made from building blocks called nucleotides. The process then repeats in what is called the cell cycle. Cell division (NIH image) Mitosis is how somatic--or non-reproductive cells--divide. Somatic cells.
What is meosis and mitosis?
meiosis is where sex cells are made -there are 8 steps in meiosis mitosis is where the nucleus divides -there are 4 steps in mitosis they both make chromosomes
What is cell division called in Somatic Cells called?
Somatic cells are the cells that form the body like skin, blood and bones. These type of cells go through the cell division process called mitosis. Gametes, or germline cells, like sperm and ova go a different cell division process called meiosis.
What type of cell division produces gametes?
Meiosis. Mitosis is in somatic sells(non gametes/non sex cells) , and meiosis occurs in gametes/sex cells.
What cell process is used to make gametes?
Gametes are Haploid (N) - From a Diploid (2N) cell, a cell must go through meiosis - From another Haploid cell, mitosis must occur to produce another cell.
In what process does cell division produce germ cells?
So far as nuclear division is concerned, in somatic cells it is mitotic whereas in germ cells it is meiotic.
In eukaryotes the process of cell division is called mitosis?
Somatic, or body cells
Reduction division is the same as what form of cell division?
Reduction division is another term for meiosis- 1 (ONE).

How is meiosis similar to mitosis?
Both meiosis and mitosis are forms of cell reproduction.They both have a prophase and an anaphase.Both are forms of cell reproduction/Both are forms of nuclear division. Meiosis occurs in generative cells and mitosis in somatic cells.
What is meosis and mitosis?
meiosis is where sex cells are made -there are 8 steps in meiosis mitosis is where the nucleus divides -there are 4 steps in mitosis they both make chromosomes

What is the difference between cells produced by mitosis and meiosis?
Mitosis reproduces somatic cells, meiosis reproduces sex cells. Mitosis- Cell division involving body cells. Divides once. Meiosis- Cell division involving sex cells. Divides twice.
Show meiosis and mitosis via venn diagram?
Mitosis is the process of a cell division in somatic cells as appose to in meiosis ;the cell division of sex cells. Meiosis takes place in sexual reproduction whereas mitosis ocours in asexual reproduction . Also mitosis has only 1 division Meiosis has 2 divisions Also, its when you have sex and jizz comes out
What type of cell is Meiosis?
That type of division is done by a gamete (sex cell). mitosis is performed in a somatic (non-reproductive) cell.
