Strictly speaking mitosis and meiosis are divisions of the?
Mitosis is division of a cell. Consists of the stages Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telaphase. Mitosis is part of the cell cycle. Meiosis is the division of a sex cell. Such as sperm or egg. Meiosis is unique because it goes through the stages twice. Prophase I, Prophase II, Metaphase I, and Metaphase II, etc.
How many cells do you end up with after mitosis and meiosis?
After mitosis you have two cells and after meiosis you have 4 cells.
Does meiosis make haploid or diploid cell?
Meiosis makes 4 genetically unique haploid cells. Mitosis makes 2 diploid cells.
Meiosis II is similar to which process?
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.
Before mitosis or meiosis DNA coils into what?
Before mitosis and meiosis, DNA is loose in the form of chromatin, then it coils into chromosomes right before the mitosis and meiosis.
Is crossing over unique to meiosis?
Yes. Crossover only occurs in prophase of meiosis I. Becuase it does not occur in mitosis, all the cells in our body are supposed to have the same genetic information (of course, excluding the cases where somatic mutations occur, such as in cancer).

What are 2 parts of meiosis that are similar to mitosis?
The part of meiosis that is similar to mitosis is inter-phase.
What are The faces of mitosis and meiosis?
there are no faces in mitosis and meiosis but there are phases
How many cells do you end up with after mitosis and meiosis?
After mitosis you have two cells and after meiosis you have 4 cells.

Do jellyfish use mitosis or meiosis?
Meiosis
Does cell replacement occur in mitosis or meiosis?
Its meiosis. Mitosis is cell division.
Meiosis II is similar to which process?
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.

both. mitosis is for skin and meiosis is for reproduction
Do tetrads form in mitosis or meiosis?
Meiosis
