Summary Introduction

To determine: The types of cell cycle occur in a fern, moss, flowering plant, pine tree, mushroom, frog, butterfly, and snail to divide and which cells divide by which cycle.

Introduction: Meiosis and mitosis are two types of cell division methods. In meiosis, the parent cell divides and gives rise to four daughter cells wherein in mitosis, the parent cell divides and gives rise to two daughter cells.

. State where cells divide mitotically and where they divide meiotically in a fern, a moss, a flowering plant, apine tree, a mushroom, a frog, a butterfly, and a snail.
Indicate the stage of meiosis (e.g., metaphase 2 = M2; prophase 1 = P1; anaphase 2 = A2; etc.) in which each of the following events occurs. first cell stage in which the original maternal/paternal chromatid doublets (chromosomes) are in separate cells chromosomes (chromatid doublets) first synapse (tetrads are visible) chromosomes (chromatid doublets, but NOT tetrads) line up in single file one doublet next to the other crossing over and recombination occurschromatid doublets move toward opposite poles of cellchromosomes (DNA) replicatechromatids separate as centromeres dividechromosomes (chromatid doublets) line up as tetrads at the cell’s equator
