Genetic material in daughter cells on found in either parents is called Recombination. Non sister chromatids of the homologous chromosomes swap pieces of DNA. This is called crossing over. Crossing over is important because it results in new combinations of genetic material that were not found in the parent DNA. Recombination: The process of producing new genetic combinations not present in the original parent DNA is called recombination. It is an important process in genetics because it leads to offspring that have different genetic make up from each other as well as different from either parent. curtacy of http://staff.jccc.net/pdecell/celldivision/meiosis.html

In what way or ways are daughter cells and parent cells the same?

In mitosis (one parent cell), the daughter cells have the same genetic material as the parent (unless there is a mutation). In meiosis (two parent cells), the daughter cell/s will share some genetic material with either parent.


How are daughter and parent cells alike?

Daughter and parent cells are alike in that they both contain genetic material and are part of the same cell division process. Daughter cells are formed from the division of parent cells and generally inherit similar characteristics from the parent cell.


Do neww cells have the same or different genetic material as the parent cell?

In the future, be more specific in your question. It is impossible for one to know whether you meant mitosis, meiosis, or otherwise from your question. Assuming mitosis, they are genetically identical outside of mutations.


Is genetic material is transferred through a pilus in binary fission?

No, genetic material is not transferred through a pilus in binary fission. In binary fission, a parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells, and genetic material is replicated and distributed equally to each daughter cell during this process. Pilus is involved in bacterial conjugation, where genetic material is transferred from one bacterium to another.


What does meiosis introduce into the daughter cells that Mitosis does not?

variationvarietyMeiosis introduces genetic variation. Mitosis produces daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. However, meiosis produces offspring with half the genetic material from each parent - and therefore much more diversity.

How is the genetic material in two daughter cells similar to the genetic material in the parent cell?

It depends if the daughter cells were produced as a result of fertilization or cloned. If fertilized the genetic material isn't same but if cloned the genetic material is 100% same.


What is genetic material in daughter cells called?

The genetic material in daughter cells is called chromosomes. These structures contain the genetic information passed down from the parent cell to the daughter cells during cell division.


How much of the parent's nuclear material does each daughter cell get?

Each daughter cell receives an equal amount of the parent's nuclear material during cell division. The genetic material is copied and distributed evenly between the two daughter cells to ensure genetic continuity.


How does a daughter cell compare to the parent cell after undergoing meiosis?

They have 1/2 the genetic material of the parent cell.


How do the daughter cells in mitosis relate?

They are just a copy of the parent. Because of this, they contain the same genetic material and therefore they are related in: structure, genetic material, and origin.


What process ensures that the daughter cells contain the same genetic material as the parent?

Mitosis. The parent nucleus splits into two daughter nuclei containing chromosomes identical to that of the parent cell.


How are daughter and parent cells alike?

Daughter and parent cells are alike in that they both contain genetic material and are part of the same cell division process. Daughter cells are formed from the division of parent cells and generally inherit similar characteristics from the parent cell.


What is another word for meiosis?

reduction division. this is because the daughter cells end up with half the genetic material of their parent.


When a cell divides through mitosis each daughter cell receives half of the parent cell's genetic code is it true?

No, when a cell divides through mitosis, each daughter cell receives an identical copy of the parent cell's genetic code, not just half. This ensures that the genetic information is preserved and passed on accurately.
