Question

The following are features of mitosis or
meiosis. can you put them in groups.im so confused
:
allows for transmission of chromosomes to offspring, necessary for growth and
regeneration, allows for regeneration of an organism, two identical diploid cells are
formed, found in organisms that contain male and female, allows for sexual repro
duction,
asexual reproduction, Four haploid cells are formed, necessary for species survival,
performed in all organisms

Answer 1

@HWBUSTER00 I can help you group them ^^.

Answer 2

please do @LiteLegacy

Answer 3

@litelagacy You should first think of the main difference between mitosis and meiosis.

Answer 4

@mrdoldum Great idea! Will do :)

Hope that helps @HWBUSTER00

Answer 7

@litelegacy I took a look at your notes. So the first on your meiosis list is also true for mitosis. The third one is mostly correct. If the parent cell is diploid, yes the 4 daughter cells are haploid. However, not all cells are diploid. Some, especially in trees and fungi, are 4n, 8n, even 16n does occur. About species survival, plenty of things cannot reproduce sexually and they do very well. In fact, if you go by just numbers of individuals, asexually reproducing organisms are by far the most common. The last meiosis topic can be applied to mitosis as well.

Answer 8

Meiosis: normally creates 4 daughter cells with half the number of chromosomes as the mother cell. We call these daughter cells 'gametes' and are what is used in sexual reproduction (think sperm and egg). During meiosis crossing over can occur, creating totally new combinations of genes.

Mitosis: creates 2 daughter cells, both, ignoring random mutations, genetically identical to the mother cell. Used in asexual reproduction and propagation of tissues and cell types in multicellular organisms.

Answer 9

YES THANK YOU . @LiteLegacy

Answer 10

@HWBUSTER00 No prob ^^.
