The form of cell division that produces animal gametes is meiosis, not mitosis. The production of gametes in plants is a function of both mitosis and meiosis.
No, meiosis is the cell division process that produces gametes (eggs and sperm) in eukaryotes. Somatic cells are produced through mitosis, a different type of cell division. Meiosis is specific to the creation of sexual reproductive cells.
Metaphase is a phase in both mitosis and meiosis.
Mitosis and meiosis are the two cell division processes that utilize DNA replication. During both processes, DNA is replicated in the S phase of the cell cycle to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the genetic material.
Meiosis II is identical to Mitosis. Meiosis is split into two stages, Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I is similar to mitosis however the cells resulting from it have half as many chromosomes as the parent cell.
DNA replication is involved in both mitosis and meiosis.
Cells can reproduce through mitosis and meiosis.
Many organisms use mitosis and meiosis. Namely, all eukaryotes probably use mitosis and meiosis. Only bacteria (prokaryotes) would not divide by mitosis and have no mechanism for meiosis as their chromosomes differ from those of eukaryotes.But eukaryotes all have the capacity for mitosis and meiosis. Eukaryotes include all animals, plants, protists and fungi.Thus, since pigs are animals (and are thus eukaryotes), then indeed they have cells that divide by mitosis and meiosis. Their body cells (somatic cells) divide by mitosis (for growth and repair). Their gametes (sperm cells and ova) are produced by meiosis as these cells must be divided to a haploid form before copulation and fertilisation. Two haploid gametes would fuse (fertilisation) to restore the resulting cell (zygote) to a diploid form. The zygote grows into a new piglet via mitosis.
No, meiosis is the cell division process that produces gametes (eggs and sperm) in eukaryotes. Somatic cells are produced through mitosis, a different type of cell division. Meiosis is specific to the creation of sexual reproductive cells.
Many celled organisms, or eukaryotes, have a bounded nucleus and can use the processes of mitosis and meiosis.
mitosis
because of an error during meiosis or mitosis or because of something in the enviroment.
Meiosis is Sexual Reproduction, unlike Mitosis, that is responsible for cell growth and other functions. Meiosis has the same phases as Mitosis except that it undergoes those phase twice (Meiosis l and ll). This results in 4 daughter cells, unlike Mitosis which results in only 2 daughter cells. Also, in Mitosis the daughter cells are identical to the original cell, while in Meiosis, it increases genetic variation, because it has characteristics of both parent cells.
Its meiosis. Mitosis is cell division.
Metaphase is a phase in both mitosis and meiosis.
Mitosis and meiosis are the two cell division processes that utilize DNA replication. During both processes, DNA is replicated in the S phase of the cell cycle to ensure that each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the genetic material.
No, prometaphase is a stage in mitosis, not meiosis. In meiosis, there is a prophase I stage that is similar to prometaphase in mitosis.
