Table below presents the criteria to be used in comparing mitosis and meiosis. Provide the missing information CRITERIA MITOSIS MEIOSIS Presence of synapses presence of crossing over cell type that undergoes cell division number of daughter cells formed DNA content of cells at start of division DNA content of daughter cells genetic consequences
Oogenesis
The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase.
Cell Division
Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
