What else can I help you with?
How many times does the cell divides in meiosis?
twice
What is meant by a daughter cell?
Two daughter cells are the result of mitotic cell division in which the parent cell nucleus undergoes mitosis, creating two genetically identical daughter nuclei, followed by cytokinesis, the division of the cytoplasm which results in two daughter cells, each with an identical nucleus.
Places in the body where mitosis takes place?
Mitosis occurs in any cells in the body, however it doesn't take place in the gametes (Sperm and ova). Mitosis occurs when tissues are damaged e.g. skin = cut, mitosis is a rapid form of cell division that eventually heals to be new skin. mitosis can occur in the body anywhere, wherever new cells need to be produced to replace old or damaged cells. Meiosis however is the rapid cell division, in which, happens only in the gametes (sex cells) and no where else in the body.
Is mitosis or meiosis involved in producing the trailing stems leaves and new roots in plants?
I think mitosis because mitosis involves growing which the plant is doing.... sorry if I'm wrong!
What is new gene combinations?
when genes cross over during meiosis, then split they from genes that differ.
How many chromosome are in the original cell compared to those in the new formed by cell division?
If the cell division follows mitosis, the number of chromosomes in original cell and new cells remain the same. During meiosis the new cells formed have half the number of chromosomes of original cell.
What name is given to the new cells formed after mitosis and meiosis?
the cells formed by mitosis and meiosis are called daughter cells.
Four new cells are formed from each original?
The process of cell division is likely occurring. This could be mitosis, which produces two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, or meiosis, which produces four daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell (e.g., for sexual reproduction).
How do you compare the parent cell and new cells formed by meiosis?
Parent cell undergoes one round of DNA replication followed by two rounds of cell division to produce four haploid daughter cells in meiosis, which results in genetic variation due to crossing over and random assortment of chromosomes. The new cells formed by meiosis are genetically distinct from the parent cell and from each other, and they contain half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
Is meiosis is the process by which a cell duplicates its chromosomes and splits into two cells.?
its chromosomes because when the cytoplasm divides and two new cells are formed each new cell has one duplicated chromosome each.
Does cloning involve meiosis?
No, cloning does not involve meiosis. Cloning typically involves a process called somatic cell nuclear transfer, where the nucleus of a somatic cell is transferred into an enucleated egg cell to create an identical genetic copy of the original organism, bypassing meiosis.
The cell will complete meiosis when making?
new cells
How the new cells formed from meiosis compared to each other?
New cells formed from meiosis are genetically unique due to the process of crossing over and independent assortment, which leads to genetic variability. Additionally, the resulting cells have half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. In contrast, cells formed from mitosis are genetically identical to the parent cell and have the same number of chromosomes.
Why do sperm producing cells divide by meiosis please help?
Meiosis produces cells that contain half the number of Chromosomes to that of the parent cell. The same process produces the female egg cell so that when the two combine during fertilization the new cell formed has the correct number of Chromosomes (half from each parent).
Why meiosis is not the type of cell division that produces new skin cells?
Meiosis is a type of cell division that produces haploid cells (sex cells) with half the number of chromosomes, which are involved in sexual reproduction. Skin cells are produced through mitosis, a type of cell division that results in two identical diploid daughter cells, and are involved in growth, repair, and maintenance of the skin. Meiosis is not suited for producing skin cells because it is specifically for generating gametes for sexual reproduction.
Why must cells undergo meiosis before they can fuse together to produce another organism?
Meiosis produces cells with half of the DNA of a normal cell so that when two cells that have gone through meiosis (like sperm and egg) are joined, the cell formed has the normal amount of DNA. If meiosis didn't happen each new organism would have twice as much DNA as it's parents.
What process forms two diploid cells?
A haploid cell only contains 23 chromosomes, whilst a diploid cell contains 23 x 2 chromosomes. When an egg cell (haploid) and a sperm cell (haploid) merge, a diploid cell is formed. Added: Called a zygote.
