What is the function of mitosis and meiosis?
Answers
The function of mitosis are Mitosis are play an important part in the life cycle of most living things, though to varying extents.
The function of meiosis is the reduction of the ploidy ( number of chromosomes ) of the gametes from diploid to haploid
Mitosis
Mitosis is a single nuclear division that forms in two nuclei. They are partitioned into two new daughter cells that have the same number of chromosomes as that of the parent cell.
Function:
➡️cell regeneration
➡️growth,
➡️asexual reproduction
Meiosis
the division of a cell in two stages that results in four cells, each with half the chromosomes of the original cell
Function:
➡️The primary function of meiosis is to create haploid gametes in order to preserve the diploid number of chromosomes in the final offspring.
