Compare and contrast meiosis and mitosis. Consider the following factors: Number of times DNA is replicated Number of cell divisions Number of daughter cells produced “Ploidy” of daughter cells Type of cells in which the process occurs Number and genetic make-up of chromosomes in parent cell compared to daughter cells

9. Complete the chart below comparing the process of mitosis to meiosis. mitosis meiosis Purpose #cell divisions (1 or 2) #cells produced (2 or 4) Are new cells gametes or somatic cells? Are new cells haploid or diploid? Does crossing over occur? When? Are new cells genetically identical or Different than parent cell?
The table presents the criteria to be used in comparing motosis and meiosis. Provide the missing information. Mitosis Meiosis chromosome number of daughter cells number of cell divisions stages presence of synapses presence of crossing over cell type that undergoes cell division number of daughter cells formed DNA content of cells at start of division DNA content of daughter cells genetic consequences
1. Compare and contrast mitosis and meiosis by placing a check in the appropriate space if the feature applies. Features Mitosis Meiosis I Meiosis II Preceded by replication of DNA. Involves a reduction division. Involves synapsis (pairing of homologous chromosomes). Chiasmata formed (crossing over). At metaphase the centromeres lie on the equatorial plane. At metaphase the centromeres of homologous chromosomes lie on either side of the equatorial plane. At anaphase chromatids separate and move to opposite poles. At anaphase homologous chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles. Number of daughter nuclei generated from parent nucleus. (provide the number) Daughter nuclei have the same number (2n) of chromosomes as parent nucleus. Daughter nuclei have 1/2 (n) the number of chromosomes. Daughter nuclei have the same chromosome as the parent nuclei.…

Why is meiosis important? Differentiate it with mitosis. Explain in a detailed manner.
In a tabular form, differentiate mitosis and meiosis using the following criteria: Chromosome number of daughter cells Stages Synapsis Crossing over Cell type Number of cells formed Genetic consequences
Compare and contrast the following stages (Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase) of Mitosis and Meiosis. Don’t just write what happens in each stage, compare and contrast means to discuss how they are the same and how they are different.
Which statements are true for mitosis? Select all that apply: 1. produces identical daughter cells 2. involved in sexual reproduction 3. reduces the number of chromosomes 4. involved in general growth and repair or asexual reproduction 5. produces cells that are almost always genetically different 6. produces diploid somatic cells 7. produces haploid gametes
For the animal cell sketch the process of meiosis. Needs to illustrate the process from start to finish, and highlight the chromosomal condition of cells through the meiotic phase Include the labels of: Interphase Mitotic (must includemeiosis I and meiosis II for prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis)
Please explain (and simply) the process of mitosis and meiosis. What are the differences between them?
Discuss about Comparison of the main features of mitosis and meiosis.
Directions: Complete the illustrations that show the differences between mitosis and meiosis. Consider the two-winged fly species Cricotopus sylvestris with chromosome number 2n = 4. Draw the stages (prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase with cytokinesis) of the two cell divisions in the corresponding boxes of Table 1. No need to include prometaphase. One box is to one stage. For each stage, draw clearly the appearance and configuration of the cell(s) and the chromosomes. For better illustration, draw the chromosomes with different sizes Use one color for the chromosomes in mitosis and two colors for the chromosomes in meiosis For the description of each stage, include the following: complete name of the stage (include correct number for those that need to have one) unique and important events undergone by the cell(s) and chromosomes appearance and configuration of the chromosomes (thinness or thickness, double-stranded or single-stranded, etc.) number of chromosomes in each…
