mitosis
what is mitosis?
Mitosis is a process of cell duplication, in which one cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells.
What is meiosis?
a type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells
How is mitosis similar to meiosis
they both undergo the process of making new cells.
What mitosis cells do?
duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.
what happens when meiosis goes wrong
a baby may have an extra chromosome trisomy, or have a missing chromosome monosomy.
what is the same about mitosis and meiosis
both mitosis and meiosis take place in the cell nuclei
What is an example of a mitosis?
it creates new skin cells to replace dead skin cells.
Is meiosis asexual or asexual?
Only sexually reproductive organisms utilize meiosis
What are similarities in mitosis and meiosis
Both the processes occur in the M-phase of the cell cycle
Is mitosis asexual?
It is an asexual reproductive process that occurs in unicellular organisms.
what is the difference between mitosis and meiosis
Mitosis is a type of cell division for somatic cells and for the asexual reproduction of unicellular eukaryotic cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division for the production of gametes in sexual reproduction
Does mitosis and meiosis have the same stages
Meiosis and mitosis both have a prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis
What are the 4 stages of mitosis
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
what happens during meiosis
each diploid cell undergoes two rounds of division to yield four haploid daughter cells — the gametes
