REPRODUCTION IN ORGANISMS

Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
division of the nucleus
A
meiosis
B
mitosis
C
both
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -A unique feature of the nucleus is that it disassembles and re-forms each time most cells divide. At the beginning of mitosis, the chromosomes condense, the nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear envelope breaks down, resulting in the release of most of the contents of the nucleus into the cytoplasm.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is a single nuclear division that results in two nuclei that are usually partitioned into two new daughter cells. The nuclei resulting from a mitotic division are genetically identical to the original nucleus.

Detailed explanation-3: -These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Detailed explanation-4: -Mitosis and meiosis, which are both forms of division of the nucleus in eukaryotic cells, share some similarities, but also exhibit distinct differences that lead to their very different outcomes. Mitosis is a single nuclear division that results in two nuclei, usually partitioned into two new cells.

Detailed explanation-5: -The large central nucleolus, which occupies about 20% of the nuclear volume, persists throughout the cell cycle. At mitosis, the nucleolus divides and moves to the poles in association with the chromosomes. The structure of the mitotic spindle and its relationship to the nucleolus are unknown.
