Why are germ cells diploid prior to their first meiotic division?
Germ cells diploid prior to their first meiotic division as a means to produce homologous chromosomes , or homologs
How many chromosomes would a cell have during metaphase 1 of meiosis if it has 12 chromosomes during interphase?
Meiosis is known as a reduction division. The total number of chromosomes present prior to meiosis is reduced in half at the end of meiosis. In this case 12 pairs of chromosomes before meiosis (a total of 24 chromosomes) becomes 12 chromosomes (one of each pair) at the end of meiosis.
If a cell has 32 chromosomes prior to the S phase and undergoes mitosis followed by cytokinesis each new daughter cell will have how many chromosomes?
two or four it all depends on sister and daughter chromosomes during the mitosis procedure about half the amount
How is antaphase 2 in meiosis similar to anaphase in mitosis?
The centrioles move apart to opposite ends of the cell, the chromosomes become attached to the fiber connected to centrioles pulling the chromatids apart; when this is over all the chromatids line up.
What is the agent that causes male genitals to differ from female genitals prior to birth?
XY chromosomes

What part of the cell structure controls replication of chromosomes prior to cell division?
the cytoplasm

How many chromosomes does a sperm cell have prior to fertilization?
23
When DNA is in long strands prior to colling?
When DNA is in long strands prior to coiling it is in the form of : Chromosomes
What cell division do daughter cells have the same number of chromosomes as parent cell?
The daughter cells resulting in mitotic cell division are genetically identical to the mother cell. This means that they have the same amount of chromosomes, which are replicated in the mother cell prior to splitting.
What is DNA replication and what is its function?
DNA replication is the process in which the DNA is copied prior to mitosis. It's purpose is to prepare the cell for mitosis, which is the division of the nucleus into two identical daughter nuclei, usually followed by cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm.
What cell is being obsorved when it shows formation of a contractile ring just prior to cytoplasmic division?
A cell shows formation of a contractile ring just prior to cytoplasmic division.
How is antaphase 2 in meiosis similar to anaphase in mitosis?
The centrioles move apart to opposite ends of the cell, the chromosomes become attached to the fiber connected to centrioles pulling the chromatids apart; when this is over all the chromatids line up.
Which general phase of meiosis resembles mitosis?
Metaphase of both mitosis and meosis resemble one another. Here, the chromosomes are condensed and aligned at the centre of the cell just before it divides. This state prior to division is refered to as 'the formation of the metaphasic plane'
