How long does it take (from enlistment to fleet) to become a Navy combat medic? I'm working on a screenplay, and in order to keep my backstory details straight I'm interested in knowing specifically whether a character who enlists in the Navy might be deployed as a combat medic in the following calendar year.
Meiosis /maÉªËoÊsÉ¨s/ is a specialized type of cell division which reduces the chromosome number by half. This process occurs in all sexually reproducing single-celled and multi-celled eukaryotes, including animals, plants, and fungi.
Cell division for egg cells proceeds in a different fashion. The overall process of cell division for sex cells is called meiosis. Meiosis has several differences from mitosis -- the biggest being that one mother cell with a full complement of DNA ends up as four daughter cells, each with one half the full complement of DNA.
