Meiosis produces haploid cells from a diploid cell

∙ 13y agoType your answer here... There are two types in cell division
Mitosis and meiosis.
Mitosis occurs in Somatic cells and it produces diploid cells(i.e., cells with the same number of chromosomes as that of the mother cell)
.This is because of the formation of sister chromatids .
Meiosis is further subdivided into
Meiosis -1 and meiosis-2.meiosis -1 produces diploid cell and is a process which is same as that of mitosis.But meiosis-2 produces haploid cells which has half the number of chromosomes compares to the mother cell.Meiosis is a process that occurs in gametic cells.Thus when the male and female gametes fuse ,the diploid cell is formed .

What process produces haploid cells from a diploid cell?
Meiosis produces haploid cells from a diploid cell
Are cells diploid or haploid at the end of cell division?
They are haploid. As meosis produces sex cells (sperm and eggs) they must have half the genetic material, so when fertilisation occurs the gamete formed has one full set of chromosomes, it is diploid.
What is the name of the process where the division of cells form haploid cells?
The type of cell division that produces four haploid daughter cells as opposed to two diploid daughter cells is meiosis.
Does mitosis make haploid or diploid cell?
Mitosis makes a diploid cell.It is to be always remembered that mitosis is an equational cell division and it can only take place in diploid cells.
What Type Of Cell Is Produced By Mitosis haploid or diploid?
Mitosis produces diploid cells with 46 chromosomes.
What process produces haploid cells from a diploid cell?
Meiosis produces haploid cells from a diploid cell
Are cells diploid or haploid at the end of cell division?
They are haploid. As meosis produces sex cells (sperm and eggs) they must have half the genetic material, so when fertilisation occurs the gamete formed has one full set of chromosomes, it is diploid.
What type of cell division can occur in both haploid and diploid cells?
Mitotic Cell Division occurs in both haploid and diploid cells
What happens when a diploid cell produces two haploid cells?
the diploid produces two haploids
What is the name of the process where the division of cells form haploid cells?
The type of cell division that produces four haploid daughter cells as opposed to two diploid daughter cells is meiosis.
The division of a diploid cell into two diploid cells?
Process of mitosis.
Does mitosis make haploid or diploid cell?
Mitosis makes a diploid cell.It is to be always remembered that mitosis is an equational cell division and it can only take place in diploid cells.
How many cells are pproduced from one parents cell?
In a typical somatic cell, mitosis produces one diploid "daughter" cell from one diploid parent cell. In a gametic cell, meiosis produces 4 haploid "daughter" cells from one diploid parent cell.
What is cell division that produces sex cells?
meiosis
The type of cell division that produces daughter cells is?
The type of cell division that produces daughter cells is MEIOSIS.
What cell division produces cells?
Meiosis
What state are the cells in at the beginning and at the end of division?
In mitotic cell division, a diploid parent cell undergoes mitosis and cytokinesis to form two new diploid daughter cells, which are genetically identical to the parent cell and each other. In meiotic cell division, a diploid parent cell undergoes meoisis and cytokinesis to form four haploid daughter cells, each of which is genetically unique.
