In what areas of the human body are where you would expect to see elevated levels of mitosis?
147661
1) That is not an English sentence.\n\n\n2) Are you sure you REALLY mean elevated, and not simply high? Th eonly areas where you wuld expect to see ELEVATED levels are sites of injury, areas experiencing rapid phsyical growth and areas subjected to certain drugs.

Mitosis, also called karyokinesis, is division of the nucleus and its chromosomes.  It is followed by division of the cytoplasm known as cytokinesis.  Both mitosis and cytokinesis are parts of the life of a cell called the Cell Cycle.  Most of the life of a cell is spent in a non-dividing phase called Interphase.  Interphase includes G1 stage in which the newly divided cells grow in size, S stage in which the number of chromosomes is doubled and appear as chromatin, and G2 stage where the cell makes the enzymes & other cellular materials needed for mitosis.\n\nMitosis has 4 major stages --- Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. When a living organism needs new cells to repair damage, grow, or just maintain its condition, cells undergo mitosis.\n\nDuring Prophase, the DNA and proteins start to condense. The two centrioles move toward the opposite end of the cell in animals or microtubules are assembled in plants to form a spindle. The nuclear envelope and nucleolus also start to break up.\n\n\nProphase\n\nDuring Metaphase, the spindle apparatus attaches to sister chromatids of each chromosome. All the chromosomes are line up at the equator of the spindle. They are now in their most tightly condensed form.\n\n\nMetaphase\n\nDuring Anaphase, the spindle fibers attached to the two sister chromatids of each chromosome contract and separate chromosomes which move to opposite poles of the cell.\n\n\nAnaphase\nIn Telophase, as the 2 new cells pinch in half (animal cells) or a cell plate forms (plant cells), the chromosomes become less condensed again and reappear as chromatin. New membrane forms nuclear envelopes and the nucleolus is reformed.

This is when a cell reproduces by either mitosis (in most cases) or meiosis (in the case of sex cells)\n\nSee http://www.scienceaid.co.uk/celldivision.html for more information

Cytokinesis isn't truly mitosis or interphase, but a stage of it's own. It happens at the end of mitosis and is often included in explanations of mitosis.

Mitosis is the cell division that takes place in most type of cells. In this division the entire DNA of the cell is replicated. The original cell divides into two daughter cells. Mitosis gives rise to almost all the cells in the body. \nA different type of cell division called meiosis gives rise to sperm and eggs. Here the daughter cells have only half the number of homologous chromosomes. This is because on fertilization the sperm and oveum will combine to form the zygote which will develop into the baby. Meiosis reduces the number of chromosomes by half, so in humans each sperm and each egg has only 23 chromosomes, including one chromosome from each pair of homologous chromosomes.

Mitotic index is a measure for the proliferation status of a cell population. It is defined as the ratio between the number of cells in mitosis and the total number of cells

Mitosis is a continuous process by which the body grows and dead body cells are replaced, in this type of cell division each "daughter cell " contains  the exact number of chromosomes as the "parent cell" 46 also called the diploid number. The process of mitosis  in sperm is called spermatogenesis  and in the ovum , called oogenesis.\nMeiosis is a different type of cell division where reproductive cells undergo 2 sequential divisions. During meiosis the number of chromosomes is reduced to half, 23 chromosomes also called the haploid number. At the moment of fertilization (when the sperm and ovum unite) the new cell contains 23 chromosomes from the sperm and 23 chromosomes from the ova returning to the diploid number of 46 and both the mothers and fathers traits are inherited by the gamete

Cell division or Mitosis is how your body replaces worn out cells.  All cells degrade over time, and if your body could not replace them, then you wouldn't live very long.  Partial cell division, or Meiosis(sp) is necessary for reproduction

A cell undergoing mitosis without cytokinesis would result in a mass of cytoplasm with many nuclei. For an example take a look at a slime mold like physarum polycephalum: http://users.rcn.com/jkimball.ma.ultranet/BiologyPages/E/Endoreplication.html

Cytokinesis is part of mitosis where the cell membrane divides

Red blood cells, for one. G1, I think. I see inter-phase above; sounds right.

First of all, gametes are produced only through meiosis and the location only occurs in the gonads(testes or ovaries). \n\nMitosis occurs all over the body for growth and repair while mitosis is for reproduction. Mitosis undergoes only one cell division to produce two identical daughter cells. Meiosis has 2 cell divisions producing 4 haploid daughter cells with mixed genes by synapsis and crossing over.

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

Mitosis is the process of cell division.  Our cells are constantly dying off.  Mitosis allows living organisms to continue to survive by replacing the dying cells.

During *mitosis*, the cytoplasm of a cell and its organelles separate into two new *identical cells*?\n\nI'm not sure what else you're looking for here...

look at your body. When you grow, cells divide and grow almost every second mitosis occurs in yuor own self. that is how you grow, repair yourself, and improve your general figure.

When cells prepare for mitosis their DNA strands twist together more and shorten enough to be seen under a microscope.  During normal interphase the DNA is unraveled and working, so the strands appear longer and thinner.  Most microscope cannot allow you to see these thin strands.
