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 kind of cell division takes place in meiosis? What do we call the process in which homologous chromosomes exchan...
1) Name two ways meiosis contributes to genetic recombination. 2) Why is it necessary to reduce the chromosome number of gametes, but not other cells of an organism? Explain why meiosis is necessary for sexual reproduction....
Spermatazoa are the male gamete,meaning they are the cells that fuse with the egg in fertilization giving rise to the embrion and future baby.
Cyanobacteria depend upon asexual methods for its division. Binary fission and fragmentation are most common methods. No sexual methods as there are no formation of gamete and there is absence of meiosis. However, conjugation, transformation and transduction do occur. Spore formation is also vital pr...
To determine at what phase of meiosis there are two cells, each with separated sister chromatids that have been moved to opposite spindle poles, we can break down the process step by step.1. Understanding Meiosis: Meiosis consi
- Cells exhibit a division of labor, where different organelles perform specific functions, similar to how organs in an organism work together to maintain life. Conclusion:To be classified as a living cell, it must possess specific structural attributes (like a cell membrane, cytoplasm, and organe...
In eukaryotic cells, the nucleus holds the DNA. DNA is arranged in long strands, each being called a chromosome. The normal human nucleus has 46 chromosomes. These chromosomes are identical in each cell, thanks to the process of cell division. ...
The epithelial cells perform a variety of functions, including protection, secretion, absorption, excretion, filtration, diffusion, and sensory reception. Furthermore, it is normal to have a small number of epithelial cells in the urine. But a large amount may indicate an infection, kidney disease...

Some parenchyma cells contain chloroplasts (green).POWER AND SYRED/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY/Getty Images...
1. Mitosis is a process of cell division where one cell divides into two. What are TWO reasons cells need to be able to perform mitosis? 2. What is the main purpose of meiosis and what are the key events for a cell to achieve it? 3. How does the amount Which stage of mitosis...
