In what type of cell, Eukaryote, Prokaryote or Both, does mitosis occur? Explain Why?

============================================================\nMitosis is a special kind of cell division used by eukaryote cells. You will probably find a series of diagrams in your biology text book to show the stages of mitosis; these are:\n\nprophase \nmetaphase \nanaphase \ntelophase \n============================================================\n============================================================\n2. cell division \n\neukaryotic cell \n\na. By mitosis (def).\nb. Sex cells in diploid (def) organisms are produced through meiosis (def). \n\nprokaryotic cell \n\na. Usually by binary fission (def). No mitosis.\nb. Organisms are haploid (def). No meiosis needed. \n============================================================\n\nMore at the links:

Meiosis only happens in sex cells. Mitosis happens in all other cells. When mitosis happens the cell splits in two. Meiosis forms 4 cells, in females only one is an egg, in males all four are sperm. Meiosis goes twice through every stage, ie   metaphase.

Mitosis is the cell division that takes place in most type of cells. In this division the entire DNA of the cell is replicated. The original cell divides into two daughter cells. Mitosis gives rise to almost all the cells in the body. \nA different type of cell division called meiosis gives rise to sperm and eggs. Here the daughter cells have only half the number of homologous chromosomes. This is because on fertilization the sperm and oveum will combine to form the zygote which will develop into the baby. Meiosis reduces the number of chromosomes by half, so in humans each sperm and each egg has only 23 chromosomes, including one chromosome from each pair of homologous chromosomes.

This is when a cell reproduces by either mitosis (in most cases) or meiosis (in the case of sex cells)\n\nSee http://www.scienceaid.co.uk/celldivision.html for more information

Meiosis:  \nprocess of cell division which occurs in the maturation of sex cells (Biology).\n\nMitosis:\nprocess of cell division resulting in two daughter cells which are identical to the original nucleus (Biology).

Mitosis is the process of dividing a parent cell to make two daughter cells.\nFirst the Centrioles move to the opposite sides of the cell\nthe nuclear membrane dissolves, and the spindle fibers begin to form.(Prophase)\nSecond the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell.(Metaphase)\nThird the centromere breaks up and the spindle fibers pull apart the chromosomes.(Anaphase)\nFourth the nuclear membranes begin to reform, and the nucleus is formed on each cell.(Telophase)\nFinally the cellular membrane separate and 2 daughter cells are formed.(Cytokinises)

In the most general sense, cellular life falls into one of 2 categories: prokaryotic cells and eukaryotic cells.  Prokaryotic cells are relatively small (1-10 um) and lack a nucleus and other major organelles as found in eukaryotic cells.  Prokaryotic cells are reminiscent of the earliest forms of life that appeared perhaps as much as 4.0 billion years ago.  The forms of life found today known as bacteria are the only living things made of prokaryotic cells.  Most bacteria are unicellular and very tiny, but some form small filaments or clusters of cells known as cyanophytes (aka blue-green algae). Eukaryotic cells are on average much larger and internally more complex than prokaryotic cells; we will investigate them is greater detail in this lab later.

During s-phase of interphase, the genetic material is duplicated.    So #1 is FALSE.\n\nTelophase sees the production of the nulear membrane.  So in effect, new nuclei are formed, making #2 TRUE.\n\nMitosis creates two daughter cells that are diploid, because it is reproduction of somatic (body cells), no production of gametes (which would be haploid).  So, #3 is TRUE\n\nChromosome find their homolougous pair during prophase of Meiosis, NOT mitosis.  Pairing occurs during meiosis so the the gametes that are haploid can be formed. So #4 is TRUE\n\nEach species has a specific number of chromosomes- fruit flies for example have 8 chromosomes, while humans have 46.  So #5 is TRUE.

Mitosis describes the process by which the nucleus of a cell divides to create two new nuclei, each containing an identical copy of DNA\nMeiosis, is the process by which certain sex cells are created. If you're male, your body uses meiosis to create sperm cells; if you're female, it uses meiosis to create egg cells

Cytokinesis isn't truly mitosis or interphase, but a stage of it's own. It happens at the end of mitosis and is often included in explanations of mitosis.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:\nMitosis divides genetic information during cell division. A cell in early anaphaseMitosis is the process by which a cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm and cell membrane. This results in two identical daughter cells with a roughly equal distribution of organelles and other cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together is defined as the mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle, the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells, each the genetic equivalent of the parent cell.

Both Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cells might contain Ribosomes.\n\nThe organelles that Eukaryotic cells have that Prokaryotic cells do not have include a true nucleus (bound by a double membrane) and usually mitochondria.  Also in some plants, chloroplasts.

Plant cells have a rigid cell wall so during telephase (cytokinesis), they use a different method of divergence ('splitting' of the cell). The process is complicated, so state that plant cells do not cleave like animal cells and that they produce a cell plate from the Golgi apparatus. Also, plant cells don't have centromeres and instead use astral fibres.\n\nBefore mitosis begins, chromosomes are replicated so that their numbers are doubled.\n\nAfter a cell undergoes mitosis, the two new cells are completely identical and have the same DNA. A difference which may occur, but is of little importance, is that one cell may receive more organelles then the other when division occurs by chance.\n\nIt's important for the nuclear membrane to disintegrate during mitosis so that the chromosomes can attach to the spindle fibres and allign at the metaphase plate (or the 'equator'). It's also required so that the chromosomes can be pulled apart from each other during anaphase, and allow the division of the cell.

During prophase. But it actually doesn't happen in all organisms. Yeast for example has a nuclear duplication and division without ever breaking down the nuclear membrane.

Cells reproduce by cell division. This is called a-sexual reproduction or binary fission or Mitosis. This type of reproduction only requires one induvidual. The cell divides in order two create two daugter cells that are identical to the original cell. First Interphase, when the cell is making copies of DNA. In Prophase, the nucleolus fades and the chromatins condense into chromosomes. In Metaphase, all the chromosomes are aligned on spindle fibers. In Anaphase, the spindle fibers dissaspear. In Telophase, the daughter chromosomes move to the poles. In Cytokinesis, not truly part of Mitosis, there are now two finallized daughter cells.\n______________________\nHope this helps!!! :) :) \nHere's for more information:  http://www.cellsalive.com/mitosis.htm

Mitosis result in 2 cells that are typical to the parent cell. it also occurs in all type of cells\nMeiosis result in 4 cells each of them have half of the chromosomal material of the parent cell. it occurs in gametes
