difference between Mitotic and meiosis
Answers
Mitosis: Take place in the somatic cells of the body
Meiosis: Take place in the germ cells.
☆No:2
Mitosis: Occurs in both sexually as well as asexually reproducing organisms.
Meiosis:Occurs only in sexually reproducing organisms.
●No:3
Mitosis: The cell divide only once.
Meiosis: There are two cell divisions, the first and the second meiotic divisions.
■No: 4
Mitosis: Interphase occurs prior to each division.
Meiosis: Interphase precedes only in meiosis I. It does not occur prior to meiosis II.
♤No: 5
Mitosis: DNA replication takes place during interphase I.
Meiosis: DNA replication takes place during interphase I but not interphase II
♡No: 6
Mitosis: The DNA replicates once for one cell division.
Meiosis:The DNA replicates once for two ce
Mitosis is the division of body cells and meiosis is the division of the sex cells.
Explanation:
Mitosis
1) This division takes place in somatic cells and as a result of this growth occurs.
2) Completed in one stage.
3) Prophase is smaller (when compared to prophase of Meiosis).
4) No crossing over takes place.
5) Synapsis does not take place at metaphase.
6) At metaphase, centromere is towards equatorial plate and ends of chromosomes towards poles. Centromere divides.
7) Chromatids are long and thin.
8) Cytokinesis follows karyokinesis.
Meiosis
1) It takes place in reproductive cells
2) Completed in two stages.
3) Prophase longer than prophase of mitosis and divided into five substages.
4) Crossing over takes place in which exchange of segments of chromatids occurs.
5) Synapsis between homologous chromosomes takes place (bivalent stage).
6) At metaphase I, the centromere is towards poles and ends of chromosomes towards equatorial plate. Centromere does not divide.
7) Chromatids are shorter and thick
8) After Telophase I, cytokinesis does not takes place always.
