What else can I help you with?
Which statement correctly describes how cellular DNA content and ploidy levels change during meiosis you and meiosis II?
During meiosis I, the DNA content is halved as homologous chromosomes separate, leading to haploid daughter cells. In meiosis II, sister chromatids separate without DNA replication, resulting in four haploid daughter cells with the same DNA content as the parent cell before starting meiosis.
Does the ploidy of a cell change when it divides by mitosis Why or why not?
It does not change. Mitosis results in two identical cells with exactly the same number of chromoses. Mitosis occurs in somatic cells for the purpose of growth of tissues, unlike meiosis which occurs in sex cells prior to fertilisation. while mitosis starts and ends as a 2n cell the part about it not changing is wrong. mitosis starts off as 2n then each chromatid replicates creating a 4n cell in prophase until it reaches telophase it goes back to 2n as the chromatids separate at the poles, and the daughter cells are formed.
Are cells that exit meiosis immediately capable of fertilization?
At the end of meiosis, haploid cells are produced. These cells need to further develop into mature gametes capable of fertilization, a process called gametogenesis.
Which of the following would be produced by meiosis red blood cell cells of the stem in plants sperm cell or epithelial cell?
Meiosis would produce sperm cells and epithelial cells in plants. Red blood cells do not undergo meiosis, as they lack a nucleus and are not capable of dividing.
How does the daughter cells produced from meiosis differ from those produced by mitosis?
What I remember from school was that meiosis split into 4 cells and that mitosis split into two cells and I think that meiosis happened when cells were trying to repair something and mitosis was for reproduction. (Remember miTosis=Two)

Which phase results in a change of ploidy from diploid 2n to haploid n?
The phase that results in a change of ploidy from diploid 2n to haploid n is meiosis. Meiosis is a type of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms, resulting in four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
What are the only cells of the seminiferous tubules capable of BOTH mitosis and meiosis?
I believe the primary spermatocytes are the only seminiferous cells that are capable of that.
The ploidy of the end products of meiosis is?
The end products of meiosis are haploid, meaning they contain half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. This is achieved through two rounds of cell division, resulting in four daughter cells that are genetically distinct from each other.
Are cells that exit meiosis immediately capable of fertilization?
At the end of meiosis, haploid cells are produced. These cells need to further develop into mature gametes capable of fertilization, a process called gametogenesis.
What occurs in plants and animal mitosis or meiosis?
Mitosis. Meiosis is only concerned in sex cells.
What is the ploidy of cells?
Human somatic cells are diploid, 2n. Human sex cells are haploid, n. Thus, the ploidy of human cells is 2, while n=23.
What is ploidy reduction?
Ploidy reduction is a process in which the number of sets of chromosomes in a cell is reduced. This can happen during meiosis, the process of cell division that produces gametes (sperm and egg cells) with half the normal number of chromosomes. Ploidy reduction is important for sexual reproduction to maintain the correct chromosome number in the offspring.
Why don't animal cell need chloroplasts?
Animal cells are not capable of photosynthesis hence these cells lack chloroplasts. We can also put it this way, that since animal cells lack chloroplasts, these are not capable of photosynthesis.
Which of the following would be produced by meiosis red blood cell cells of the stem in plants sperm cell or epithelial cell?
Meiosis would produce sperm cells and epithelial cells in plants. Red blood cells do not undergo meiosis, as they lack a nucleus and are not capable of dividing.
What are haploid cells also known as?
Ploidy
