What type of cell division can occur in both haploid and diploid cells?

Meiosis is a type of cell division that can occur in both haploid and diploid cells. In haploid cells, meiosis produces gametes (sex cells) with half of the genetic material, while in diploid cells, it helps in producing haploid cells for sexual reproduction.


Where does transcription occurred?

Generally speaking transcription of an mRNA occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell. Keep in mind that in both prokaryotic and eukaryote cells transcription occurs, and though eukaryote cells have a nucleus where the DNA is stored unlike in prokaryotic cells this space is not utilized for transcription.


What produces haploid cells?

Haploid cells are produced through the process of meiosis, which is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half. Meiosis occurs in specialized cells called germ cells, which are found in organisms that reproduce sexually.


Can haploid cells undergo mitosis?

No, haploid cells cannot undergo mitosis. Mitosis is a type of cell division that occurs in diploid cells, which have two sets of chromosomes. Haploid cells only have one set of chromosomes and undergo a different type of cell division called meiosis.


Do diploid and haploid cells have an alternation of generations or mutations?

Diploid and haploid cells do not have alternation of generations; this phenomenon occurs in multicellular organisms with a life cycle that alternates between haploid and diploid stages. Mutations can occur in both diploid and haploid cells, but they are more likely to have an impact in diploid cells due to their higher genetic complexity.


What cell undergoes mitosis in an organism?

Fertilization occurs when haploid cells fuse to form


Do humans have Prokaryote cells or eukaryote cells?

Eukaryoric cells


When and in what cells does meosis happen?

Meiosis occurs when diploid cells produce haploid daughter cells and takes place in sexually reproducing organs.


Are The adult angiosperms diploid or haploid?

Adult angiosperms are typically diploid, meaning they have two sets of chromosomes in their cells. The haploid stage occurs during the formation of gametes (sex cells) through meiosis, where the chromosomes are reduced by half to create haploid cells.


What occurs in meiosis and not mitosis?

Meiosis is characterized by the division of the mother cell into four haploid cells.


What is a organism whose cells have a nucleus?

eukaryote cells or eukaryote organisms.


What are cells called with half the genetic information?

Cells with half the genetic information are called haploid cells. Each haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes, whereas diploid cells have two sets. Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells such as sperm and egg cells.
