The difference between mitosis and mieosis is that mitosis creates two cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, and mieosis creates four cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell (theses cells are used for reproduction)
Mitosis is the process of cell division in somatic cells to make 2 identical diploid cells. ItMeiosis is a process of cell division that creates 4 haploid cells that are not completely identical. Meiosis creates sex cells or gametes.
mitosis gives a diploid cell (2n) but meiosis gives a haploid cell (n) with half the chromosome number. meiosis is for sex cells where as mitosis is for somatic (body cells). during mitosis the chromosomes "cross over" and the genitic information is exchanged but this dosent happen in meiosis.
No, prometaphase is a stage in mitosis, not meiosis. In meiosis, there is a prophase I stage that is similar to prometaphase in mitosis.
meiosis is created from sex cells and mitosis is nucleus
meiosis
Many organisms use mitosis and meiosis. Namely, all eukaryotes probably use mitosis and meiosis. Only bacteria (prokaryotes) would not divide by mitosis and have no mechanism for meiosis as their chromosomes differ from those of eukaryotes.But eukaryotes all have the capacity for mitosis and meiosis. Eukaryotes include all animals, plants, protists and fungi.Thus, since pigs are animals (and are thus eukaryotes), then indeed they have cells that divide by mitosis and meiosis. Their body cells (somatic cells) divide by mitosis (for growth and repair). Their gametes (sperm cells and ova) are produced by meiosis as these cells must be divided to a haploid form before copulation and fertilisation. Two haploid gametes would fuse (fertilisation) to restore the resulting cell (zygote) to a diploid form. The zygote grows into a new piglet via mitosis.

the amount of chromosomes in a cell. meiosis is used in sexual reproduction and mitosis is just making more cells. chromosomes in a human after meiosis=24; mitosis=48.
Meiosis differ among humans and alligators because the number of chromosomes that is given from the parents.
In metaphase of meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up in pairs, while in metaphase of mitosis, individual chromosomes line up singly.
Mitosis is a type of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four genetically different daughter cells. Mitosis is used for growth and repair, while meiosis is used for sexual reproduction.
Its meiosis. Mitosis is cell division.
Metaphase is a phase in both mitosis and meiosis.
No, prometaphase is a stage in mitosis, not meiosis. In meiosis, there is a prophase I stage that is similar to prometaphase in mitosis.
In mitosis, DNA replication occurs once, resulting in two identical daughter cells. In meiosis, DNA replication occurs twice, resulting in four genetically diverse daughter cells.

mitosis occurs more frequently then meiosis
meiosis is created from sex cells and mitosis is nucleus
