Mitosis and meiosis are two types of cell division that serve different purposes. Mitosis is responsible for the growth, repair, and asexual reproduction of cells, producing two genetically identical daughter cells from a single parent cell. Meiosis, on the other hand, is a specialized form of division that occurs in germ cells to produce gametes (sperm and eggs), resulting in four genetically diverse cells with half the original chromosome number. This genetic variation is crucial for sexual reproduction and evolution.
What else can I help you with?
How do mutations occur during mitosis?
reasorment of chromosomes can occur during meosis by crossing over
What is defference between telophase of meosis and telophase of mitosis cell division?
telophase of mitosis contain 1 new diploid cell at the end while telophase of meiosis contain 4 new haploid cells at the period of division.
Can germ cells be involved in mitosis?
No, germ cells undergo meiosis to produce haploid gametes (sperm and egg cells), not mitosis. Mitosis is the process of cell division that produces genetically identical daughter cells for growth and repair in somatic cells.
In what way meiosis 2 similar to mitosis?
There is no Mitosis II. I assume you are referring to Meosis, which has 2 stages of Mitosis. The second stage of Mitosis in Meiosis has the same phases as the first stage, but as opposed to producing two genetically identical daughter cells, it produces two slightly different gametes, other wise known as sex cells, otherwise known as haploids.
Which statement correctly describes how mitosis and meosis are similar?
when the sperm cell has half the amount of chromosomes in the egg cell of a female is considered mitotic cell division
What ar the two parts of cell division?
Mitosis and Cytokinesis
What are cell reproduction mitosis or meosis controlled by what biomolecules?
Proteins and Nucleic Acids.
When does the cell divide in mitosis and meosis?
The cell divides (undergoes cytokinesis) during telophase.
Why do primordial germ cells multiply by mitosis instead of meiosis?
Primordial germ cell multiply by mitosis when they have to increase their number like other cells but they divide by meosis during gametogenesis.
How many daughter cells are produced during mitosis?
Two are produced in Mitosis and 4 in meosis.
How do mutations occur during mitosis?
reasorment of chromosomes can occur during meosis by crossing over
How many homologous chromosomes interact with each other or dont during mitosis and meiosis?
In mitosis, the homologous chromosomes dont interact, but in meosis, they separate during Anaphase 1. In mitosis, the homologous chromosomes dont interact, but in meosis, they separate during Anaphase 1.
What is defference between telophase of meosis and telophase of mitosis cell division?
telophase of mitosis contain 1 new diploid cell at the end while telophase of meiosis contain 4 new haploid cells at the period of division.

Which general phase of meiosis resembles mitosis?
Metaphase of both mitosis and meosis resemble one another. Here, the chromosomes are condensed and aligned at the centre of the cell just before it divides. This state prior to division is refered to as 'the formation of the metaphasic plane'
How many chromosomes are there after meosis?
after meosis , there are 46 chromosomes .
