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.
Each cell contains one half the number of chromosomes as the original parent cell. Meiosis is similar to the cell division process of non-sex cells known as mitosis. Mitosis produces two cells that are genetically identical to and contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. These cells are diploid cells because they contain two sets of chromosomes.
