Q

Kinesis means?

17
Q

The physical process of cell division, which divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells

18
Q

A type of cell division which occurs on sex cells or gametes

results in generally unique daughter cells

19
Q

What are the 8 stages of Meiosis?

A

PMAT I & PMAT II

20
Q

What are the two cell cycles of Meiosis?

A

MEIOSIS I & MEIOSIS II

21
Q

also considered as the shorter and simpler process than Meiosis I

22
Q

is dubbed as mitosis for haploid cells
