DIFFERENCES BETWEEN MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS
EVENTS
MITOSIS
MEIOSIS
Occurrence
In all the body cells including germ cells.
Only in the germ (reproductive) cells.
Definition
It is an equational division.
It is a reductional division.
Number of daughter cells
Only two
Four
Prophase
Involves relatively few changes.
Involves a series of changes in chromosomes distinguished into 5 substages.
Chromosomes
Not visible in prophase.
Visible in the leptotene stage of prophase - I
Synapsis
Does not occur.
Occurs in zygotene of prophase-I.
Crossing over
Occurs in pachytene stage of prophase - I.
Metaphase
Chromosomes arrange along the equator.
Chromosomes arrange equally on either side of the equator in metaphase-I.
Centromeres in Anaphase
Each centromere splits into two.
Centromeres do not split in metaphase-l.
Centrome- res in Metaphase
Orient towards the equator while chromatids orient towards poles.
Orient towards poles while chromatids orient towards the equator in metaphase-I.
Telophase
Results in the formation of two daughter nuclei having the same no. of chromosomes as that of parent cell.
Telophase-II results in the formation of two daughter nuclei, each having half the no. of chromosomes as that of parent cell.
Cytokine- sis
Follows immediately after karyokinesis.
May or may not occur at the end of first karyokinesis
Q. Explain about Non ionising radiation? Non ionising radiation include infrared and UV rays. Lethal effect is through generation of heat and DNA damage. Penetration is low but
Q. Of which substance do elastic fibers of the connective tissue are made? What are few functions of these fibers? The elastic fibers are made of a protein called as elastin.
Q. Are hormones only proteins? Some hormones are proteins, like glucagon, insulin and ADH others are derived from proteins (modified amino acids) like noradrenaline and adrenal
VERTEBRAL COLUMN - It is curved vertical about 70 cms. long. It consists of 33 vertebrae (after fusion 26). It shows 4 curvatures - (i) Cervical curvatures
Q. Engler and Prantl's System of Classification? Adolf Engler, Professor of Botany, University of Berlin, Germany, proposed a phylogenetic system of classification in a book en
Sources of vitamin C It is found in many of the natural foods like fresh citrus fruits like limes, lemons and oranges are rich sources of vitamin C. The best and the chea
Explain Congenital Heart Disease (CHD)? Congenital heart disease is an abnormality at birth in cardiac circulatory structure or function. Optimal management of CHD aims not mer
Define the Micronutrient Deficiencies? In the previous section, we learnt about macronutrient deficiencies i.e. protein energy malnutrition in children. We are now aware that t
The F2 phenotypic ratio from a dihybrid cross with epistasis was 9:3:4. If instead of a dihybrid cross, a double heterozygote was test crossed (crossed to a homozygous recessive in
Gastrulation The end of cleavage of the unicellular zygote results in the creation of multicellular blastula, which may be a solid structure with no a cavity (stereoblastula)
