Compare the amount (haploid or diploid) and arrangment of material (number of chromatids per chromosome) in each cell following telophase I of meiosis and telophase of mitosis.
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
Compare the amount (haploid or diploid) and arrangment of material (number of chromatids per chromosome) in each cell following telophase I of meiosis and telophase of mitosis.
There are two types of cell division mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is a single division that occurs in somatic cells that is required for growth and repair where as meiosis requires two divisions and occurs in the production of male and female gametes.
