Location and Geography. Northern Ireland is the smallest country in the United Kingdom, situated on the second largest island of the British Isles. It occupies one-sixth of the island it shares with the independent Republic of Ireland.ood customs of the Northern Irish are not really different from the practices of the Irish in the Republic of Ireland. Christmas supper includes meat such as chicken and ham followed by plum pudding. Being a strongly Catholic country, the Friday night prohibition of meat is observed by Catholics.
Quick Answer. Mitosis is the process where one cell divides into two cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell, while meiosis is the process where one cell divides into four cells with half the number of chromosomes as the original cell. The processes have very similar steps.
The second cell division in Meiosis is known as Meiosis II. Meiosis II is very similar to Mitosis. In both cases chromosomes line up and sister chromatids are separated by the action of the spindle fibers. The daughter cells are genetically identical to one another. There are some minor differences between Mitosis and Meiosis II. Cells at the start of Mitosis II are haploid. Cells at the start of have the normal ploidy of the organism they are in. Normally we think of Mitosis as occurring in diploid cells but in many organisms it can occur in haploid cells as well.
