What would happen if the process of mitosis skipped metaphase? tell me faster if you can pls.?

During metaphase in mitosis the chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate so that sister chromatids can separate during anaphase. missing this important step will lead to unequal distribution of chromatids between daughter cells which could be fetal to these cells or make them abnormal in terms of chromosome number.

Telophase (sometimes spelled telephase) is a stage in either meiosis or mitosis in a eukaryotic cell reversing the effects of prophase and prometaphase events. During those events, the nucleus was dissolved and the chromatin in the cell was condensed into chromosomes. Telophase thus "cleans up" the secondary after effects of mitosis.\n\nMitosis 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.\n\nMitosis 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. Prokaryotic cells, which lack a nucleus, divide by a process called binary fission.\n\n1.The S phase, short for synthesis phase, is a period in the cell cycle during interphase, between G1 phase and the G2 phase. Following G1, the cell enters the S stage, when DNA synthesis or replication occurs. At the beginning of the S stage, each chromosome is composed of one DNA double helix molecule, which is called a chromatid. At the end of this stage, each chromosome has two identical DNA double helix molecules, and therefore is composed of two sister chromatids. During S phase, the centrosome is also duplicated. These two events are unconnected, but require many of the same factors to progress. The end result is the existence of duplicated genetic material in the cell, which will eventually be divided into two.\n\nDamage to DNA often takes place during this phase, and DNA repair is initiated following the completion of replication. Incompletion of DNA repair may flag cell cycle checkpoints, which halts the cell cycle.

OF COURSE!!!! This is the whole idea of mitosis, my dear!\nAt least in healthy non-cancerous cells.\nEukaryotic cells need to undergo replication of DNA (during the S-phase of the cell cycle) prior to divide into 2 IDENTICAL daughter cells, with identical set of chromosomes containing one copy of each sister chromatide. Mitotic defects are due to problems with the mitotic spindle and generally lead to aneuploidy and to mitotic catastrophe (or cell death). A mechanism of control of this process is called mitotic spindle checkpoint and ensures that the protein complex that keeps the sister chromatides together is only degraded when all the chromosomes are correctly aligned and their kinetochores are attached to the spindle pole bodies. Proteins involved in the regulation of the mitotic spindle checkpoints include kinases, such as BubR1 and AuroraB, proteases, such as separase and the APC complex, and ATPases (clamp loaders) which "load" the complexes onto the DNA.\nOf course, if the cells undergo mutations during DNA replication, the two daughter cells may not be identical, but these are rare events.

Most mitotic cell divisions do result in daughter cells that are equal in size to the parent.  During interphase, the cellular material, like cytoplasm, is duplicated as well as the genetic material.  This is not the case for meiotic cell divisions, though, which yield cells that are certainly smaller than the parents, and it is not always the case in mitosis, like for example, in the developing blastula.

Penguin says >>\n\nOogenesis is the process of females creating egg cells... When women are born, they have a lot of cells that of those egg cells, only a few will undergo meiosis and form egg cells. Meiosis, yes, does form four haploid cells from each one of those "pre-made egg cells". All those four haploid cells has 23 chromosomes. However, Meiosis only ensures that there are enough chromosomes for the offspring, and not necessarily the quality of the egg cell... \n\nWhat I mean is >> The larger egg cell containing more cytoplasm lives, while the other doesn't develope into an ovum. \n\nIn Meiosis I, the original cell divides into two, with 46 chromosomes. Meiosis does not seperate into two equal cells, as they do in mitosis. The larger cell then splits again [Meiosis II], and of the two haploid cells that result from Meiosis II, the larger one lives again. So, only one gamete is formed, though of the 4 haploids, 3 of the haploids degenerate. \n\n-- Cytokinesis isn't part of mitosis...Mitosis is part of the cell cycle, which has 3 steps :: interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis. \n\nRemember that mitosis is the process of splitting a cell's nucleus. \n\nand remember that cytokinesis only splits two cells in half by pinching the cell membrane...\n\nSo... there's a difference. \n\nThank -you-\n\n<< Penguin waves good bye.

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

After mitosis you have two daughter cells that are from the first cell.  I believe they are identical and the only differences is the amount of cytoplasm (which happens during anaphase and continues thru telophase)  Hope I helped a little.

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

I don't have any picutres for you to look at, but I can give you an explanation.\nanimal cells are going to be more rounded, and plant cells are more rectangular.\nRemember: PMAT, these are the phases of mitosis\nProphase-the chromatin begins to condense into chromosomes and the nucleus begins to break down.\nMetaphase-The Chromosomes line up or Meet or "MET" at the cellular equator\nAnaphase- The chromosomes are pulled apart at the centromere\nTelophase- The chromatin decondenses and the neclues reforms\nAlso, the diff. between animal and plant cells....\nAnimal cells have a cleavage furrowl like a figure-8.\nPlant cells build a cell plate in between the separated chromosomes\nMitosis results in two daughter chromosomes.

mitosis is not the 2nd part of meiosis. \ncrossing over does not happen in mitosis basically because there is no need to do so. \ncrossing over occurs in the 1st part of meiosis  when the 2 pairs of homologous chromosomes come together in the prophase part of meiosis--one pair of chromosomes from each parent. that is where the exhcange of genes occur in order to add variation between the 4 daughter cells.\nin mitosis, the homologous chromosomes do not come together. the DNA simply copies itself and will eventually lead to the split into 2 identical daughter cells.

Meiosis only happens in sex cells. Mitosis happens in all other cells. When mitosis happens the cell splits in two. Meiosis forms 4 cells, in females only one is an egg, in males all four are sperm. Meiosis goes twice through every stage, ie   metaphase.

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.

The answer to your question depends on whether you are referring to mitosis or meiosis.  I assume (since you specified Metaphase II) that you want to know about meiosis.  If this is the case, than a cell in metaphase II contains approximately the same mass of DNA as a cell in G1.  However, if you are talking about mitosis, than the cell in metaphase II (i.e. true metaphase, not prometaphase) will have approximately twice the mass of DNA than a cell in G1 would have.

Definitely b...\nDuring Interphase, there are 3 subphases - G1, S, and G2.  G1 is for growth of the cell, S is for synthesis of an extra set of chromosomes (amount of DNA in cells), and G2 is for preparation for the rest of cell division.  After interphase is prophase (nuclear membrane dissolves and DNA bundles up), then metaphase (DNA lines up on the center of the cell), anaphase (DNA separates towards poles), and telophase (Cell divides into two cells).  I hope this helps!\n\nAnswer: b. between the G1 and G2 phases of the cell cycle

The replication of chromosomes does not occur during mitosis. This replication occurs during the S phase of the interphase. Think of the word SYNTHESIS when you think of the S phase. The new strands of DNA in the chromosome are SYNTHESIZED in the S phase.

Mitosis produces daughter cells genetically identical to the parent cell.\nThis has to be true since mitosis is the cell division producing growth - we would not expect entirely different bits and pieces to appear as we grew!\n\nThe first stage of mitosis is DNA replication. The following stages share out the exact copies of DNA equally between the daughter cells.

It's cytokinesis.The prophase 1 of meiosis is followed by Meiosis two which is similar to mitosis.Cytokinesis is the formation of plate between the 2 daughter cells.This does not take place in prophase of any type of cell division i.e. mitosis  or meiosis.The other phenomenon is formation of bipolar spindle.This takes place in the start of metaphase.
