Question

Part B

How did you determine the types of cell division for both phases depicted in your model? Explain your answer.

Answer 1

The types of cell division are determined by observing specific characteristics of each phase, with mitosis yielding two genetically identical daughter cells and meiosis resulting in four genetically diverse gametes. Chromosomes in the S phase consist of two sister chromatids, align at the metaphase plate during metaphase of mitosis, and are separated into two identical sets in the daughter cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the types of cell division for the phases depicted in the model, you would look at the specific characteristics of each phase as observed in experiments and previous knowledge from the field of biology. In the S phase of the cell cycle, cells undergo DNA replication, where each chromosome is duplicated to produce sister chromatids. This phase is part of both mitosis and meiosis. However, mitosis and meiosis differ in their subsequent stages. Mitosis results in two genetically identical daughter cells and encompasses phases such as prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and is followed by cytokinesis. During metaphase of mitosis, chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plate, and then during anaphase, the sister chromatids are separated into two identical sets. Meiosis, on the other hand, includes two cellular divisions and leads to the production of four genetically diverse gametes with half the number of chromosomes.

To model chromosomes just finished the S phase, you would depict each chromosome consisting of two identical sister chromatids. During metaphase of mitosis, you would show the chromosomes aligned at the metaphase plate. Finally, to model the two daughter cells after mitosis, you would show each cell with a complete set of chromosomes that are identical to the parent cell, following the separation that occurs in anaphase and telophase.

The chapter 7 from AP® Biology Investigative Labs and Figure 3.32 emphasize the stages of cell division including mitosis followed by cytokinesis, reinforcing the process by which genetic material is identically separated into new nuclei and the cytoplasm is divided.

Answer 2

Cell division is a process that makes our skin, tissues, muscles, sex cells. It is the building block of our body.

Step-by-step explanation:

When parents cells ahs been divided into two or more than two daughter cells then it is called division of cells. The division of cells occur as a larger cell. When we talk about eukaryotic cells, these cells divided into two distinct types of the cells, the vegetative cells.

The daughter cells are the identical to the parents cells genetically. There are two types of division such as mitosis and meiosis. When parents cells divides in daughter cells and daughter cells divided further, this process called the cells cycle. The mitosis cell division occur interphase. Meiosis cell division occur in two phase meiosis I and meiosis II.
