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.
1 Germ cells have only half the number of chromosomes as a diploid cell one of each pair. 2  The number of chromosomes is reduced from 46 (23 pairs) to 23 during the process of meiosis. 3  Because they have only half the total chromosomes in a somatic cell, they are termed haploid (n) .II. Meiosis reduces chromosome number from diploid (2n) to haploid (n) 1 diploid cell (2n) cell becomes 4 haploid (n) germ cells (eggs or sperm). During meiosis, chromosomes are replicated once in S phase (just like mitosis) into sister chromatids, but the cell divides twice.
