Bioflix activity: meiosis -- comparing mitosis and meiosis can you identify the similarities and differences between mitosis and
Natali5045456 [20]
1. Similarities:
they are both processes of cell division by which cells reproduce.
They share several steps of the process(prophase, metaphase, anaphase e telophase, cytokinesis) but meiosis has another division also with those same steps.
In both cases the cell duplicates its DNA by pulling it apart into two sets, place the sets on each end of the cell, and then divide down the middle.

Both produce new cells based on their parent cells' genes.

2. The differences:

Mitosis:

- has 1 division per cycle
- one cell produces 2 new cells
- the genetic information in the mother-cell and the daughter-cells are the same. ( the number of chromosomes is also the same)
- it occurs in somatic cells
Meiosis:
- two divisions per cycle.
- one cell when divides produces 4 new cells
- the new cells have different genetic information. mixes the  the genetic material from the parent cells
- the number of chromosomes of the daughter cells is half of the mother's.

When you want to bend your elbow, your biceps muscle contracts (Figure below), and, at the same time, the triceps muscle relaxes. The biceps is the flexor, and the triceps is the extensor of your elbow joint.

tangare [24]
The Krebs cycle can be used to make many various intermediates that can be siphoned off into other pathways. Mainly though, it makes the electron carriers NADH and FADH2 which can then be used in the electron transport chain to generate ATP.
