Is meiosis I or meiosis II most like mitosis? Explain why. Meiosis is a critical process for many living organisms. If an organism became unable to complete meiosis, what effect would it have on the organism? a. The organism would not grow by adding new cells. b. The organism would no...
Or (to focus on the cellular level): when a cell enters into mitosis, just about every detail of its physiology and chemistry takes on an altered meaning in light of the changing context — and similarly when a cell experiences heat shock, oxygen deprivation, or other stress; when it comes...
What stages do mitosis and meiosis have in common? What is the purpose of mitosis? What kinds of cells need mitosis and what kinds do not? Mitosis occurs in what type of cells? (somatic or germ or both) What types of organisms reproduce by mitosis? Why do they do this?
How do organisms benefit from having two types of cell division processes? Having both processes allows organisms to grow and repair tissues efficiently through mitosis, while also enabling genetic diversity and sexual reproduction through meiosis. 8 Why is it important that meiosis reduces the chromoso...
The Cell Cycle and Mitosis: You Are Your Own Clone Army Just like us multicellular organisms, cells have a cycle of life. The cell cycle. Image fromA&P 6. Most of a cell’s time is spent in Interphase, the largest section of the pie-chart-looking graphic above. But there comes a tim...
Answering the question, “Why do cells divide?” pretty much also answers the question, “Why is mitosis important?” The process of mitotic cell division in eukaryotic cells is important for two main reasons: because cell division creates new cells that keep eukaryotic organisms thriving, and be...
Living things grow and change through the process of cell division, ormitosis. In organisms composed of more than one cell, mitosis either repairs damaged cells or replace older ones that have died. Additionally, multicellular organisms grow larger in size by increasing the number of cells in the...
Answer and Explanation:1 There are two main systems in the body that control cell to cell communication: the endocrine and nervous systems, the nervous system, and the... Learn more about this topic: Cell Communication Concept & Examples ...
What is the important role of mitosis in plant biology? What is the purpose of the mitochondria? Explain. How did Anton Van Leeuwenhoek contribute to cell theory? How did Matthias Schleiden discover cell theory? How do prokaryotes function without organelles?
Plants are multicellular organisms; they are made of hundreds upon thousands of cells that function together, making up an organism as a whole. For the organism to function, its cells must coordinate with each other, and to do that they need to interact with each other. However, one cell ...
