Can meiosis occur in haploid cell?
Yes, mitosis can occur in a cell of any ploidy. There will only be two daughter cells at the end of mitosis and both cells will have the same ploidy as the parent cell. (e.g. A diploid cell will go through mitosis producing 2 diploid daughter cells. A haploid cell will produce 2 haploid daughter cells at the end of mitosis.)
How is sex determined in most ants and bees?
In most ants and bees, sex is determined by the fertilization of eggs. Fertilized eggs develop into females, while unfertilized eggs develop into males. This type of sex determination system is known as haplodiploidy.
Are protists animals?
No, protists are not animals. They are a diverse group of eukaryotic microorganisms that do not fit into the plant, animal, or fungi kingdoms. Instead, they are classified into their own kingdom called Protista.
Why are fungi thought to be more closely related to protists instead of plants?
Fungi are not plants mainly because they are heterotrophic and lack the capacity to perform photosynthesis. Fungi are more closely related to animals than plants and most protists. (The term protist has no phylogenetic meaning anymore. That is, "protists" are not all related to one another. There are some prostists that group with fungi in the most recent eukaryotic tree of life. However, more research needs to be done to discover the synapomorphies, or shared, derived traits, between fungi and these protists.) They are more similar to protists in that many protists are also heterotrophic. However, most protists use the DAP pathway to synthesize lysine while fungi use the AAA pathway. Protists use a variety of compounds to store energy. Plants use starch and starch-like compounds. Fungi and animals use glycogen. The cisternae of the mitochondria of many protists are tubular, while animals and fungi have plate-like cisternae.
What type of asexual reproduction that commonly occurs in many species of unicellular protists?
Sexual reproduction can occur in two ways in multicellular protests. first way when two haploid gametes fuse. the second is through conjungation, which is the exchange og genetic material two individuals.-CARTEL TORRES
What types of organisms have a cell cycle that alternates between diploid and haploid?
Plants and most muticellular protists
Which of the life cycles is typical for most fungi and some protists?
The typical life cycle for most fungi and some protists is the haploid-dominant life cycle. This means that the predominant stage in their life cycle is haploid, with the fusion of haploid cells (usually through sexual reproduction) forming a diploid zygote that undergoes meiosis to produce haploid spores.
Are most of the cells in the human body called haploid or diploid?
All cells in the human body that are not gametes (sperm or egg cells) are diploid. Gametes are haploid.
How many diploid chromosomes does a haploid have?
A haploid cell contains one set of chromosomes, which is half the number of chromosomes found in a diploid cell. In humans, for example, haploid cells (like sperm and egg cells) have 23 chromosomes, while diploid cells (like most body cells) have 46 chromosomes. Thus, a haploid has half the diploid chromosome number.
In animals which stage is more dominant haploid or diploid?
In most animals, the diploid stage is more dominant than the haploid stage. This means that the majority of an animal's life cycle is spent in the diploid stage, where most body cells are diploid and capable of reproduction. The haploid stage, typically represented by gametes (sperm and egg cells), is usually a brief phase dedicated to sexual reproduction.
What the difference between the diploid and haploid?
Diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, while haploid cells have only one set of chromosomes. Diploid cells are found in most of the body's tissues, while haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells like sperm and eggs. During sexual reproduction, haploid cells combine to form a diploid zygote.
What are the key characteristics of haploid eukaryotes and how do they differ from diploid eukaryotes?
Haploid eukaryotes have one set of chromosomes, while diploid eukaryotes have two sets. This means haploid cells have half the genetic material of diploid cells. Haploid eukaryotes are typically found in reproductive cells, like sperm and eggs, while diploid eukaryotes are found in most other cells of the body.
What is the difference between a haploid cell and a diploid cell-?
A haploid cell has one set of chromosomes (n) while a diploid cell has two sets of chromosomes (2n). Haploid cells are typically found in reproductive cells (sperm and egg), whereas diploid cells are found in most somatic cells in the body.
What does the term haploid mean?
The haploid number (n) is the number of chromosomes in a gamete of an individual. This is distinct from the monoploid number (x), which is the number of unique chromosomes in a single complete set. Gametes (sperm, and ova) are haploid cells. The haploid gametes produced by (most) diploid organisms are monoploid, and these can combine to form a diploid zygote. For example, most animals are diploid and produce monoploid gametes.
What is the difference between a haploid cell and diploid cell?
A haploid cell contains a single set of chromosomes (half the normal number), typically found in gametes (sperm and egg cells). In contrast, a diploid cell contains two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent, and is found in most somatic cells of the body.
Are daughter calls produced by meiosis haploid?
Haploid... i think but most likely At the end of Mitosis you are left with two identical diploid cells, but at the end of Meiosis there are four haploid cells.
Can you provide examples to illustrate the difference between haploid and diploid cells?
Haploid cells have one set of chromosomes, while diploid cells have two sets. For example, human sperm and egg cells are haploid, containing 23 chromosomes each. In contrast, most human body cells are diploid, with 46 chromosomes, inherited from both parents.
