Welcome to Mitosis vs. Meiosis. This half of the screen illustrates mitosis—the division of a cell's nucleus. Along with cytokinesis (the division of the rest of a cell), mitosis results in a ...

In the 1980s, scientists knew little about the X and Y chromosomes. What they did understand was that every cell in the body ...

Rec8 joins the whole length of the sister chromatids together, and, as meiosis proceeds, is lost in a stepwise manner that correlates with the loss of sister-chromatid cohesion. Figure 1 ...

When different varieties of one plant species are crossed with each other, their hybrid offspring are often more robust and ...

Homologous recombination (HR) is an important process that plays multiple crucial roles during meiosis, a type of cell cycle dedicated to sexual reproduction. During meiosis, reshuffling of ...

On the ballot is "Proposition 1," which has been in a back-and-forth when it comes to supporters and critics alike on issues of gender identity and abortion.

With this staining method, scientists were able to observe cell division and to identify the steps that occurred during both mitosis and meiosis (Figure 1). The first indication that sex ...

Sexual reproduction, a common mode of reproduction among numerous species, involves gametogenesis in which offspring are ...

Researchers meticulously examined the gametogenesis of budding yeast, a process involving meiosis and spore formation, using live imaging techniques. Their findings revealed that during sporulation, ...

When egg and sperm cells combine in fertilisation, they merge the two sets of chromosomes, ending up with 46 chromosomes in total. The maternal chromosomes from the egg cell and the paternal ...
