What else can I help you with?
What happens before meiosis begin?
Interphase. The process of meiosis has many similarities to the process of mitosis: chromosomes replicate before the process begins, and shorten and thicken to look like the chromosomes at the beginning of mitosis (condensation).
What event must occur outside the nucleus before mitosis can begin?
Before mitosis can happen, the chromosomes inside the nucleus must separate to form identical pairs. This sets the stage for each of the daughter cells to have a copy of the DNA to replicate the full sequence.
How many chromosome are in a egg?
Eggs and sperms are gametes. They are haploid. Haploid means that they have half the regular number of chromosomes. This works really well because an egg and a sperm join together to begin a new organism which will then have the entire diploid number of chromosomes. A human body cell would have 46 chromosomes. Since a human egg cell is a reproductive cell (sex cell), it would contain only half the number of chromosomes as a body cell. Thus, a human egg cell would have 23 chromosomes. A sex cell has half the number of chromosomes for a good reason. When two sex cells reproduce, they combine to form double the number of chromosomes. So when two cells with 23 chromosomes each reproduce, the offspring would have 46 chromosomes. To keep humans at 46 chromosomes per cell, sex cells are produced through meiosis, which is a process that creates cells with half the number of chromosomes.
In which phase do the chromosomes coil and become short and thick?
Prophase is inside the nucleus the chromosomes get short and thick and as they coil up become visible as pairs attached by the centromere. The centromere is joined to special proteins to from the kinetochore.
How many chromosomes does human cell have before division?
46
What happens before meiosis begin?
Interphase. The process of meiosis has many similarities to the process of mitosis: chromosomes replicate before the process begins, and shorten and thicken to look like the chromosomes at the beginning of mitosis (condensation).
What must happen before meiosis can begin?
DNA replicates and forms tetrad—APEX.
What is the Stage where chromosomes begin to move apart?
It is a process during mitosis called anaphase.
Why must gametes be haploids?
It must join with the other gamete to form a diploid number of chromosomes. If it had a diploid number to begin with, the result would be twice the normal amount of chromosomes. A normal cell had "2n" number of chromosomes, and each gametes have "n". If they had "2n" to begin with, the resulting zygote would have "4n", which is clearly not normal in human genome.
What event must occur outside the nucleus before mitosis can begin?
Before mitosis can happen, the chromosomes inside the nucleus must separate to form identical pairs. This sets the stage for each of the daughter cells to have a copy of the DNA to replicate the full sequence.
How do the chromosomes get to the stage of meiosis prophase?
A nucleus is signals the rest of the cell that the cell is ready to undergo meiosis, in which case the chromosomes begin to condense with the help of histones, which is the beginning of prophase I of meiosis.
What must happened before mitosis can begin?
The chromosomes must be duplicated. the real answer: DNA replicates and forms tetrads

How many chromosomes are in a egg cell?
Twenty-three chromosomes are in a human egg cell. 22 are autosomes, the other is an X chromosome.
What k must happen before meiosis can begin?
A duplication of the chromosomes is what must happen before meiosis can begin.
When do planes typically begin the boarding process?
Planes typically begin the boarding process around 30-45 minutes before the scheduled departure time.
Stage when chromosomes begin moving apart?
Anaphase
