Mitosis and meiosis are similar in some regards, as they both begin with the duplication of genetic material within the cell. However, in mitosis,...Become a member and unlock all Study Answers Start today. Try it now Create an account Ask a question Our experts can answer your tough ...
Explain how meiosis can result in a chromosome in the gamete that has parts of both chromosomes in a parent's pair of homologous chromosomes. Describe how mitosis and meiosis are similar. Explain which steps in meiosis result in genetic variation among meiot...

In meiosis two, there is no S phase i.e. no duplication of chromosomes. The process is similar to mitosis as the two sister chromatids are separated and the two haploid daughter cells form four haploid (23 chromosomes) cells with single chromatid. This reduction in the number of chromosome ...
What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis? Cells divide and reproduce in two ways, mitosis and meiosis.Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis results in four sex cells. Below we highlight the keys differences and similarities between the two types of cell divisio...
During the cell cycle, replication and mitosis are the stages at which epigenetic memory is most likely to be erased. Each stage presents a different molecular challenge to memory. During replication, newly assembled chromatin is acetylated and may favour an active PRE but challenge a silent one....
Optical camouflage delivers a similar experience to Harry Potter's invisibility cloak, but using it requires a slightly complicated arrangement. First, the person who wants to be invisible (let's call him Harry) dons a garment that resembles a hooded raincoat. The garment is made of a special...
Cell Division: Why are there two types: mitosis and meiosis? How are they different? How does meiosis produce new combinations of genes? What is a Chromosome? It is a linear strand of DNA in combination with nuclear proteins. We call this complex of DNA and...

What happens to the chromosome number during meiosis? How does meiosis create genetic diversity? Why does meiosis produce cells with half the chromosomes? What is the pairing of homologous chromosomes during meiosis? How are mitosis and meiosis similar?
