What type of cell does mitosis not produce?

Mitosis does not occur in bacteria, because they are single celled organisms.


Must spores occur in mitosis?

Spores are produced through a specialized form of cell division called meiosis, not mitosis. Meiosis involves two rounds of cell division that results in the formation of haploid spores with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. These spores will eventually undergo mitosis to form new multicellular organisms.


Must mitosis occur in budding?

Mitosis must occur in budding.


Does mitosis occur in adult organisms why?

Yes, mitosis occurs in adult organisms mainly for growth, tissue repair, and cell replacement. While it is not as prevalent as in developing organisms, adult tissues such as skin, blood, and the lining of the gut continue to undergo mitosis to maintain and regenerate cells. This process is crucial for healing wounds and replacing damaged or dead cells.


Does meiosis occur in all growing organisms?

No, meiosis does not occur in all growing organisms. Meiosis is a specialized form of cell division that occurs in sexually reproducing organisms to produce gametes (eggs and sperm). Organisms that reproduce asexually, such as bacteria and some plants, do not undergo meiosis.

Does longitudinal splitting of chromosomes occur in mitosis?

No, longitudinal splitting of chromosomes does not occur in mitosis. During mitosis, chromosomes condense and align along the metaphase plate before being separated into two daughter cells. Longitudinal splitting can occur during meiosis I to produce haploid daughter cells.
