The first thing you will see is the structure of the cells which form tissue. Inside the cell, there's nuclues which contols all the activities in the cell. Protoplasm stands for cytoplasm and nuclues(extra info).

DNA replicates for cell division.  The new cell gets the same DNA as the parent cell.  DNA replicates during mitosis.  DNA also replicates into RNA.  This is done inside the nucleus.  RNA is the exact opposite copy of DNA.  RNA aids in the synthesis of proteins.  The RNA goes to the ribosomes and synthesizes proteins.

When a cell divides you get a new cell. There are actually four main stages of cell division. They are:\nProphase\nMetaphase\nAnaphase\nTelophase.\n\nIf you want more information, I would suggest trying Wikipedia, or your local library.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:\nMitosis divides genetic information during cell division. A cell in early anaphaseMitosis is the process by which a cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves. It is generally followed immediately by cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm and cell membrane. This results in two identical daughter cells with a roughly equal distribution of organelles and other cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together is defined as the mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle, the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells, each the genetic equivalent of the parent cell.

mitosis is the process of nuclear division in which the chromosomes replicate and become equally distributed into two daughter so that they hane the same number and type of chromosomes as present in the parent. it was first observed by Strasburger(1870) in plants and by Boveri & Fleming(1879) in animal cells... its also known as somatic division as it involves only the somatic body cells, also since its keeps the chromosome numeber the same its also known as equitorial division..\n\n\nmeiosis occurs in diploid cells and gives rise to four haploid nuclei, each havin n/2 number of chromosomes, here n is the number of chromosomes.. in this the nuclei divides twice but the chromosomes are replicated only once....\n\nits divided into 2 stages\n1. Meiosis 1\n2. Meiosis 2\n\neach have a number of sub stages..\n\nthere are 1000's of major differences, i'll sorting them, its upto u to remember the one... and as far as the pneumatic device is considered, it's common 2 all of us..\n\n\n1. Mitosis takes place in somatic cells, whereas Meiosis in reproductive cells.\n\n2. mitosis occurs in both haploid & Diplois, meiosis in diploid only.\n\n3. 2 & 4 daughter cells produced resp..\n\n4. CHROMOSOMES REPLICATE IN THE INTERPHASE BEFORE EVERY DIVISON IN MITOSIS BUT IN MEIOSIS THEY REPLICATE ONLY ONCE PRIOR TO MEIOSIS.

mitosis:the process in cell division by which the nucleus divides, typically consisting of four stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase.\n\nmeiosis: (genetics) cell division that produces reproductive cells in sexually reproducing organisms; the nucleus divides into four nuclei each containing half the chromosome number (leading to gametes in animals and spores in plants) \n\nosmosis:Transmission of fluids from one cell into another; foundation of metabolism, led by the concentration of salt within a cell. Water can penetrate cell membranes, and strives to, where the concentration of salt is highest, in order to equalize the salt concentration in the body.

Mitosis is when a cell divides into to identical daughter cells. They contain the same genome as the parent cell. The only way a daughter cell can be altered is through a mutation of DNA/RNA.

mitosis is the process of cell division.\n\nWithout cell division there would be no reproduction of cells, therefore when a cell dies, that would be it.  Eventually all your cells would die, and you'd be dead.\n\nThis website will probably explain it better:\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

mitosis is the normal mode of cell multiplication and increasing there number without a change in their constiution so it occurs in all the SOMATIC CELLS (normal cells of body not involved in sexual reproduction).\nmeiosis occur in gamete forming cells as it is the reductoinal division

1.The genetic purpose of mitosis is to produce two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.\n\n2.The sequence of stages that a cell passes through between one cell division and the next. The cell cycle can be divided into four main stages: the M phase, when nuclear and cytoplasmic division occurs; the G1 phase; the S phase in which DNA replication occurs; and the G2 phase.\n\n3.The cell cycle is an ordered set of events, culminating in cell growth and division into two daughter cells. Non-dividing cells not considered to be in the cell cycle. The stages, pictured to the left, are G1-S-G2-M. The G1 stage stands for "GAP 1". The S stage stands for "Synthesis". This is the stage when DNA replication occurs. The G2 stage stands for "GAP 2". The M stage stands for "mitosis", and is when nuclear (chromosomes separate) and cytoplasmic (cytokinesis) division occur. Mitosis is further divided into 4 phases.\n\npheeww.. it's like being back in school. Is hould get 10 points for this effort :-)

1)  The cell is the unit of structure, physiology, and organization in living things. \n   2)  The cell retains a dual existence as a distinct entity and a building block in the   construction of organisms. \n   3)  Cells form by free-cell formation, similar to the formation of crystals (spontaneous generation).\n\nKeep this as hint and do your homework

Mitosis:\n\nOccurs during cell division of somatic cells\n\nA full set of chromosomes is passed on to each daughter cell. This s the diploid number of chromosomess\n\nthe choromosomes and genes in each daughter cell are identical.\n\nIf new organisms are produced by mitosis is asexual reproduction they will all resemble each other and their parents. they are said to form a 'clone'.\n\n\nMeiosis;\n\nOccurs in the final stages of cell division leading to production of gametes.\n\nOnly half the chromosomes are passed on to the daughter cells, i.e. the haploid number of chromosomes.\n\nThe homologous chromosomes and their genes are radomly assorted between the gametes.\n\nNew organisms produced by meiosis in sexual reproduction will show variations from each other and form their own parents.

(m)\n\nIn biology, meiosis is the process that transforms one diploid cell into four haploid cells in eukaryotes in order to redistribute the diploid's cell's genome.\n\nMeiosis forms the basis of sexual reproduction and can only occur in eukaryotes. In meiosis, the diploid cell's genome, which is composed of ordered structures of coiled DNA called chromosomes, is replicated once and separated twice, producing four haploid cells each containing half of the original cell's chromosomes. These resultant haploid cells will fertilize with other haploid cells of the opposite gender to form a diploid cell again. The cyclical process of separation by meiosis and genetic recombination through fertilization is called the life cycle. The result is that the offspring produced during germination after meiosis will have a slightly different blueprint which has instructions for the cells to work, contained in the DNA. This allows sexual reproduction to occur.\n\nMeiosis uses many biochemical processes that are similar to those used in mitosis in order to distribute chromosomes among the resulting cells; however the outcome is very different.\n\ngoto the following link for details about meiosis\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiosis

Stages of Interphase\n\n    * G1 phase: The period prior to the synthesis of DNA. In this phase, the cell increases in mass in preparation for cell division. Note that the G in G1 represents gap and the 1 represents first, so the G1 phase is the first gap phase.\n\n    * S phase: The period during which DNA is synthesized. In most cells, there is a narrow window of time during which DNA is synthesized. Note that the S represents synthesis.\n\n    * G2 phase: The period after DNA synthesis has occurred but prior to the start of prophase. The cell synthesizes proteins and continues to increase in size. Note that the G in G2 represents gap and the 2 represents second, so the G2 phase is the second gap phase.\n\n    * In the latter part of interphase, the cell still has nucleoli present.\n\n    * The nucleus is bounded by a nuclear envelope and the cell's chromosomes have duplicated but are in the form of chromatin.\n\n    * In animal cells, two pair of centrioles formed from the replication of one pair are located outside of the nucleus.

The importance of mitosis is the maintenance of the chromosomal set; each cell formed receives chromosomes that are alike in composition and equal in number to the chromosomes of the parent cell. Transcription is generally believed to cease during mitosis, but epigenetic mechanisms such as bookmarking function during this stage of the cell cycle to ensure that the "memory" of which genes were active prior to entry into mitosis are transmitted to the daughter cells\nMitosis is the process by which a cell separates its duplicated genome into two identical halves. It starts with cytokinesis which divides the cytoplasm and cell membrane. This results in two identical daughter cells with a roughly equal distribution of organelles and other cellular components. Mitosis and cytokinesis together is defined as the mitotic (M) phase of the cell cycle, the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells, each the genetic equivalent of the parent cell. Mitosis occurs exclusively in eukaryotic cells. In multicellular organisms, the somatic cells undergo mitosis, while germ cells — cells destined to become sperm in males or ova in females — divide by a related process called meiosis.\nVR

Mitosis is the reproduction of body cells.  Meiosis is the reproduction of gamet of sex cells and only have 23 chromosomes in them.
