What do mitosis and meiosis have in common?
they both divide into new cells i say
Does cell replacement occur in mitosis or meiosis?
Its meiosis. Mitosis is cell division.
Is prometaphase in meiosis?
No, prometaphase is a stage in mitosis, not meiosis. In meiosis, there is a prophase I stage that is similar to prometaphase in mitosis.
Why meiosis is called modified mitosis?
Meiosis is very similar to mitosis. Meiosis produces two "half-cells" after the first cell division. Mitosis, however produces two fully genetically capable cells. After mitosis, the cell products can reproduce by themselves. Meiosis is a "modified" version of mitosis, meant for genetic diversity. Mitosis probably existed way before meiosis, simply because it is easier to execute. Meiosis produces what is called a gamete. These gametes, or 'sex cells' cannot reproduce by themselves. These half-cells are meant to be combined with the complementary gamete (egg with sperm) to maximize genetic diversity and promote evolution. Mitosis is the simplified version of meiosis, and meiosis is the "modified" mitosis. You often find mitosis in simple organisms, meant solely for reproduction purposes. Meiosis is more common in evolutionarily advanced organisms, such as mammals.
Do tetrads form in mitosis or meiosis?
Meiosis
What is created by each of the processes in meiosis and mitosis?
meiosis is created from sex cells and mitosis is nucleus
What occurs in plants and animal mitosis or meiosis?
Mitosis. Meiosis is only concerned in sex cells.
Does mitosis or meiosis occur more frequently in your body?
mitosis occurs more frequently then meiosis
Meiosis II is similar to which process?
Meiosis II is identical to Mitosis. Meiosis is split into two stages, Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I is similar to mitosis however the cells resulting from it have half as many chromosomes as the parent cell.
How many rounds of division does meiosis involve versus mitosis?
Meiosis involves two rounds of division (meiosis I and meiosis II), while mitosis involves only one round of division.
Is producing sex cells mitosis or meiosis?
meiosis
Does mitosis or meiosis consists of nuclear division?
Mitosis
