MITOSIS/MEIOSIS : If you started with a cell with four chromosomes, what would happen if sexual reproduction took place for four generations using diploid (2n) cells instead of haploid cells (n)? (In other words, how many chromosomes...
What type of cell division makes people grow? A. Mitosis B. Meiosis Mitosis occurs in what type of cells? (somatic or germ or both) What is true of both mitosis and meiosis? What is the production of egg cells by meiosis called?
What part of the cell cycle does the cell spend most of its time interphase mitosis division of the nucleus into 2 nuclei, each with the same number of chromosomes Mitosis occurs in what type of cell somatic (body) cells Name the 4 phases of mitosis in order prophase, metaphase, anaphase...
Mitosis occursin somatic cells; this means that it takes place in all types of cells that are not involved in the production of gametes. Prior to each mitotic division, a copy of every chromosome is created; thus, following division, a complete set of chromosomes is found in the nucleus of...
What triggers mitosis? Entry into mitosis is triggered by theactivation of cyclin-dependent kinase 1 (Cdk1). This simple reaction rapidly and irreversibly sets the cell up for division. Where does mitosis occur in our body? Mitosis occurs in the cells for growth and for repair and replacement...
What Is Mitosis? Mitosis is a process that occurs during thecell cycle.The role of mitosis in the cell cycle is to replicate the genetic material in an existing cell—known as the “parent cell”—and distribute that genetic material to two new cells, known as “daughter cells.”In order...
I WISH to retract the concept previously presented by me 1 and to which I have been committed, that classical mitosis occurs in bacteria. This interpretation of cytological material was developed on the basis of routine microscopy on stained preparations. The configurations observed were interpreted ...
Meiosis in humans occurs in specialized cells of the testes in men and the ovaries in women. Whereas mitosis creates cells identical to the original to replace dead cells or contribute to the growth of the whole organism, meiosis generates cells called gametes designed to fuse with gametes from...
Explain the stages of cell division in mitosis. Define mitosis. What are the significances of mitosis? For mitosis and meiosis, illustrate homologous chromosomes. Mitosis occurs in: A. Sex cells (creating eggs and sperm) B. Body cells (skin, liver, intestines, etc.) C. Cancer cells only ...
Mitosis occurs in somatic cells, which are all cells of the body except for germ cells that undergo meiosis. 12 What mechanisms in meiosis increase genetic variation? Crossing over (the exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes) and independent assortment (random distribution of chrom...
