Question

For the following statements indicate which ones are true for Meiosis (1) or Mitosis (2 a. Number of chromosomes in daughter cells remain same as parent b. Takes place in somatic cells d. Spindle fibers form and extend towards the center of cell from the poles f. Takes place only in reproductive cells c. Homologous chromosomes pair up -e. DNA exchange takes place between non-sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes Parent cell undergoes two sequential divisions h. Homologous chromosomes pair up on equatorial plate i. Amount of DNA is duplicated in the S phase Cytokinesis (cytoplasm is split between daughter cells)

Explanation / Answer

i.a.mitosis b.mitosis( it is process by which somatic cell replicates) c.meiosis(in prophase 1). d.both( spindle fiber divide genetic material in cell.) e.meiosis( it is called crossing over). f.meiosis(here cells spilt to form new cells with half no. of chromosomes to produce gametes). g.meiosis(here two nuclear divisions occur). h.meiosis(in metaphase 1). i.both(as s phase occurs at interphase before mitosis or meiosis). j.both( as cytokinesis occur in nuclear division in mitosis and occur in animal cells in meiosis).
