The parent cells that are different from ordinary body cells are called stem cells. Stem cells have the unique ability to develop into different types of cells in the body through a process known as differentiation. They play a crucial role in growth, repair, and regeneration of tissues in the body.
The parent cells divide in the meristem or growing region. The locale is called the Cleavage Furrow.
Cells formed during mitosis are called daughter cells. These cells are genetically identical to the parent cell from which they were formed.
Cells created from meiosis are different from the parent cell because they have half the number of chromosomes. Meiosis involves two rounds of cell division resulting in four daughter cells, each with a unique combination of genetic material due to crossing over and random assortment of chromosomes. This genetic diversity leads to variation among the offspring.
Cells. Different types of cells have different names. What type of cells are you talking about? Different parts of a body have different types of cells.
The starting cell that divides into two identical cells in mitosis is called a parent cell or a mother cell.
