Do somatic cells go through meiosis? Do they also go through mitosis?
Meiosis is what germ/sex cells do in order to produce genetically unique haploid daughter cells, called gametes. The combination of these in offspring promotes genetic diversity. However, there is no...

There are two different forms of cell division- mitosis and meiosis. Why do we need two forms? Do all cells use both forms? Why do you think that this is true? What are the advantages and disadvantages of each form of cell division?
We need two types of cells divisions for different purposes. takes place in Somatic Cells and occur in Germ Cells. Mitosis helps in repairing and replacing old,...

Which kind of cell can divide by mitosis, a germ cell or a somatic cell? What kind can undergo meiosis?
Mitosis is for growth and repair. One cell becomes two daughter cells with each containing 46 chromosomes and retains the exact feature of that cell. Meiosis is for reproductive cells....

Which of these correctly distinguishes mitosis from meiosis?
A) Mitosis occurs in germ cells and meiosis occurs in somatic cells.
B) Crossing over takes place in mitosis and not in meiotic cell division.
C) Meiosis produces four 2N daughter cells; mitos
Recall that somatic cells are body cells excluding the reproductive cells. For example, this includes cells of the liver, skin, stomach, but not of sperm or the human egg. In...

Do prokaryotic cells undergo mitosis?
the prophase of involves the dissolving of the nuclear envelope. So I assume mitosis occurs in cells with nucleus and prokaryotes don't have nucleus. They undergo a similar processes call...

Do cancer cells undergo mitosis at an abnormally fast rate?
is closely controlled by the genes inside every cell. Sometimes this control can go wrong. If that happens in just a single cell, it can replicate itself to make...

How many daughter cells are in mitosis and how many are in meiosis?
In , one parent cell divides into 2 daughter cells with identical chromosomal number. However, in , one diploid parent cell divides into 4 haploid daughter cells.

How is interphase II of meiosis different from interphase of mitosis and interphase I of meiosis?
The meisis I enters into the II with short interphase II. This interphase II lacks the of G1, S, and S2 phase. It is beacuse before entering into the complete...

What is the difference between daughter cells produced by meiosis and daughter cells produced by mitosis?
The main differences between mitosis and meiosis occur in meiosis stage I. For the most part, in mitosis, diploid cells are partitioned into two new diploid cells, while in meiosis,...

Why is there no interphase between Meiosis I and Meiosis II?
First thing to remember is that interphase is a stage associated with replication of DNA, and growth. Once starts, the purpose is to produce a haploid gamete. So there...
