comparison between Mitosis and meiosis?

Question

ok.. please dont copy paste huge aritcles off the net. share your knowledge.

Answer 1

Mitosis:

Occurs during cell division of somatic cells

A full set of chromosomes is passed on to each daughter cell. This s the diploid number of chromosomess

the choromosomes and genes in each daughter cell are identical.

If new organisms are produced by mitosis is asexual reproduction they will all resemble each other and their parents. they are said to form a 'clone'.


Meiosis;

Occurs in the final stages of cell division leading to production of gametes.

Only half the chromosomes are passed on to the daughter cells, i.e. the haploid number of chromosomes.

The homologous chromosomes and their genes are radomly assorted between the gametes.

New organisms produced by meiosis in sexual reproduction will show variations from each other and form their own parents.

Answer 2

Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells together as Meiosis produces 4 haploid cells intercourse Cells struggle by way of Meiosis to reproduce, they split in 4 and each and each finally end up with 23 chromosomes Non-intercourse cells struggle by way of mitosis, each and each cellular splits in 2 and that all of them finally end up with forty six chromosomes The stages of mitosis from prophase to telophase are very such as those in meiosis, prophase I to telophase I the two mitosis and meiosis are strategies that cells reproduce.

Answer 3

Mitosis are when your body cells duplicate by dividing into 2 new cells. Meiosis occurs in sex cells and produces gametes...sperm or egg cells. These cells are haploid because the cell splits twice to produce 4 instead of 2 cells. Haploid means they only have one set of chromosomes...diploid means that there are doubles of every chromosome. Humans are diploid, which means all of our cells have 23 pairs of chromosomes...our gametes just have 23 chromosomes.

Answer 4

mitosis |mīˈtōsəs| noun ( pl. -ses |-sēz|) Biology a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth. Compare with meiosis .

meiosis |mīˈōsəs| noun ( pl. -ses |-sēz|) 1 Biology a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each with half the chromosome number of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes. Compare with mitosis

Metosis has the same number, and meiosis has half the number. That's the only difference but they're the same.

Answer 5

Mitosis is the process by which a cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm and cell membrane. (more info at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis)

Meiosis is the process that allows one diploid cell to divide in a special way to generate haploid cells in eukaryotes.

Answer 6

Mitosis-Diploid-Body Cells-46
Meiosis-Haploid-Sex Cells-23

Thats all i remember

Answer 7

meiosis splits a cell into four cells, each with a haploid number of chromosomes

mitosis splits one cell into two identical cells.

if you want nauseating detail, just say so.
