meiosis
What is the difference between meiosis and mitosis??
Mitosis is a type of cell division for somatic cells and for the asexual reproduction of unicellular eukaryotic cells
what is the mitosis type of cell division?
Meiosis is the type of cell division for the production of gametes in sexual reproduction.
How long is each cell cycle stage?
It might last about 11 hours.
What are 3 types of cell division?
mitosis, meiosis, and binary fission.
What happens during meiosis?
one cell divides twice to form four daughter cells.
what does a cell do when a cell duplicates?
all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.
or
the contents of the parent cell are copied and divided between the two daughter cells.
What happens in cell cycle phases?
A cell cycle is a series of events that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides. A cell spends most of its time in what is called interphase, and during this time it grows, replicates its chromosomes, and prepares for cell division
What are examples of cell division?
An example is when you skin your knee, cells divide to replace old, dead, or damaged cells
what is the contrast of meiosis?
It consists of two nuclear divisions resulting in four nuclei that are usually divided into four new cells.
what does mitosis do when it produces new cells?
replaces cells that are old, lost, or damaged.
What is the longest stage of the cell cycle?
Interphase
what is cell division?
the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells.
what is the Meiosis type of cell division?
sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in gametes.
What is the simple definition of mitosis?
a process of cell duplication, in which one cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells.
in which phase do cells rest
GO phase
where do you find cell division?
the nucleus
Why is meiosis important?
Meiosis is important because it ensures that all organisms produced via sexual reproduction contain the correct number of chromosomes.
what is the process of mitosis?
the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them
What is the fastest stage of the cell cycle?
M phase
There are two types of cell division, what is it?
mitosis and meiosis
