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.
The process results in four daughter cells that are haploid, which means they contain half the number of chromosomes of the diploid parent cell. Meiosis has both similarities to and differences from mitosis, which is a cell division process in which a parent cell produces two identical daughter cells.
