Do Meiosis and Mitosis occur in all organisms?

Biology
1 answer:
NemiM [27]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

No, not <em>all </em>organisms.

Explanation:

Hi there,

As you may continue to learn in biology, not all organisms go through the process of mitosis/meiosis. Well known examples are prokaryotes, such as  bacteria and archaea, ancient organisms that replicate via binary fission, budding, and/or fragmenting

Mitosis and Meiosis only occur in eukaryotes and unique to them.

thanks,

A class is proteins known as fibrous proteins provide various parts of your body with structure, strength and elasticity.

Compare and contrast what happens in mitosis and meiosis and discuss the importance of each process to a living organism.
Semenov [28]

In mitosis, the first stage is prophase. The nucleolus disappears and the two centrosomes begin to form the mitotic spindle. The spindle xtends between two opposite poles f the cell. Next is the metaphase. The centromeres of the chromatid pairs align at the center of the miotic spindle. Then anaphase, the centromeres will split that separates the chromatid pair. They are now called chromosomes. The last phase is the telophase. The chromosomes will then form a thread-like chromatin and for ache envelope, a nucleoli appears. <span>The type of cell division that produces gametes with half the normal chromosome number is the meiosis. Meiosis is the type of cell division used in sexual reproduction. It will occur in the testes and ovaries.</span>
