Hey There! _____________________________________ $\Huge{\text{Answers}}$

$\Large{\textbf{Mitosis:}}$

The cells undergo mitotic division to increase the number of cells to replace the worn out cells and for growth.In Mitosis, there are 4 stages, they are, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase.In mitosis, cell divide once to form 2 daughter cells.In mitosis 2 daughter cells are produced.No, Chromosomal Number remains the same in mitosis i.e. 46.The final result of mitosis is two identical cells which are called daughter cells

$\Large{\textbf{Meiosis:}$

In meiosis, cells divide to produce gametes(i.e. sex cells) for the sexual reproduction.Meiosis occurs in 2 division i.e. Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2(It is just Mitosis). The stages that are involved in these 2 division are 8.

The stages of Meiosis 1 are,

(a) Prophase (which is sub-divided into 5 more stages which are Leptotene, Zygotene, Pachytene, Diplotene and Diakinesis)

(b) Metaphase,

(d) Telophase.

The Stages of Meiosis 2 are, Prophase, Metaphase, Telophase and Anaphase which are same as mitosis.

3. In meiosis, Cell divides twice.

4. In meiosis, 4 daughter cells are produced.

5. Yes, the chromosomal number in mitosis is reduced to half than normal i.e. 23

6. In meiosis, the final result is 4 haploid cells. If meiosis occurs in male then these haploid cells will be called sperms, if it occurs in female then they are called Ova(egg).

Just to give you some insight knowledge of Meiosis Im adding some extra points

$\Huge\textbf{Meiosis:}$

Meiosis is a special type of cell division, which occurs only in the germ cells during the process of development and maturation to form gametes. It consists of two successive cell divisions,

Meiosis 1 : First meiotic division, that reduces the NUMBER of chromosomes i.e. the parent cell is diploid(46 Chromosomes) and the daughter cells are haploid(23 Chromosome). It also causes genetic variation in the haploid by cross linkage.

Meiosis 2 : Second meiotic division (Meiosis II) starts with two haploid parent cells and ends with four haploid daughter cells. Meiosis 2 like Meiosis 1, does not reduce the NUMBER OF CHROMOSOME that means the forming 4 daughter cells are haploid and their number of chromosome remains the same as the parent. BUT Haploid cells that go into the meiosis 2 have MORE AMOUNT OF CHROMOSOME THAN USUAL, thus MEIOSIS 2 REDUCES the amount of chromosome rather than the number of chromosome.

The DNA of the primitive germs cells is replicated prior to the meiosis 1 only and there is no replication of DNA before Meiosis 2. The four final cells reulting from the two meiotic divisions are not only haploid(i.e. containing 23 chromosome) but they are also containing 1n amount of DNA so that when the gametes fuse together forming a zygote, both the amount and number of chromosome and DNA remains SAME.

$\Large\text{Why is Meiosis Important?}$

Meiosis is essential for the sexual reproduction of eukaryotic organisms because it enables genetic diversity through recombination, and the repair of genetic defects.

It contributes in genetic reassorment which ensures the genetic diversity in the offsprings. The genetic reassortment takes place by following two mechanisms:

During the prophase of meiosis 1, crossing over of genetic material between the homologous maternal and paternal chromosomes takes place which causes exchange of DNA fragments between the chromosome resulting is genetic diversity. During the anaphase of the first meiotic division, there is random distribution of maternal and paternal homologous chromosomes among the daughter cells which are produced as a result of meiotic division._____________________________________Best Regards,'Borz'

Subduction zones form when an oceanic plate collides with another oceanic plate or continental plate. the continental crust is lighter and less dense than oceanic crust. continental crust's density is approximately 2.7 grams per cubic centimeter. oceanic crust is thinner and the average density is about 3.3 cubic centimeters. when the two crustal plates converge the oceanic plate always bends and subducts beneath a continental plate. once the oceanic crust subjects, the rocks are subjected to changes in heat and pressure. because of this, we would expect to find rocks in the area of a subduction. a) clastic b) igneous c) metamorphic d) sedimentary
