Question

Why mitosis and meiosis 2 are called as homotypic division

Answer 1

Answer:

The main function of homotypic division or meiosis II is to separate the chromatids of univalent chromosomes which differ from each other in their linkage groups due to crossing over. Meiosis II is divisible into prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase. Prophase II: This stage of nuclear division is very brief. hope this will help. if you like the answer then mark it as brainliest ☺✌

Answer 2

The mitosis and the meiosis 2 are called as homotypic division because before or after the cell division the number of the chromosomes remains the same.

Explanation:

The somatic cells undergo mitosis cell division and the germ cell undergoes meiosis cell division.

Mitosis is an equational cell division as the before and after cell division, the number of the chromosomes remain the same.

But in the meiosis 1, the number of chromosomes reduced but in the meiosis 2, the number of chromosomes remains the same in before and after meiosis 2 cell division.
