Compare the number and type of cells that result from meiosis vs. mitosis. 11. How do the genetic contents of cells resulting from mitosis and meiosis differ? 12. Comparing and Contrasting Describe a similarity and a difference between meiosis I and meiosis II. 13 Applying Concepts If a diploid cell containing 28 chromosomes undergoes meiosis, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have? 14 Compare and Contrast: How are mitosis and meiosis similar and different?
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:
