How many cells does cell division of meiosis of a parent cell with 23 pairs of chromosomes give? How many chromosomes does a human cell have during prophase? How many copies of each trait does any individual have on each pair of homologous chromosomes?
Compare Mitosis and Meiosis by addressing in which type of cells they occur, how many cells are produced, the ploidy of the cells produced and whether cells produced are identical to the parent cells or different. In what ways is meiosis II similar to and different from mitosis of...
( mitosis ). during meiosis , precursor cells have two copies of each chromosome that gets copied and distributed equally to four sex cells. the sex cells (sperm and egg) have only one copy of each chromosome. when sperm and egg unite in fertilization, the offspring have two copies of ...

Mitosis produces two cells from one parent using one division event. But meiosis produces four new child cells with two divisions, each of which has half the genetic material of its parent. Mitosis takes place all over the body, while meiosis only takes place in the sex organs and produces ...
A new discovery explains what determines the number and position of genetic exchanges that occur in sex cells, such as pollen and eggs in plants, or sperm and eggs in humans. When sex cells are produced by a special cell division called meiosis, chromosomes exchange large segments ofDNA. T...

This occurs during meiosis, when the X and Y chromosomes separate a bit from the other chromosomes and form an XY body. The Y chromosome gets inactivated by having the X chromosome's inactivation spread over to the Y chromosome. The X chromosome remains inactivated in meiotic spermatocytes, ...
ensures faithful segregation in the absence of synapsis and recombination during the first meiotic division (Page et al.2003; Marín-Gual et al.2022). Alternatively, the PAR can be rejuvenated (extended) by the addition of autosomal material, as occurred in the eutherian ancestor under the addit...
