* both daughter cells from the first mitotic division divide forming FOUR monoploid cells, having only one set of chromosomes. MITOSIS vs. MEIOSIS. MITOSIS: 1) growth and asexual reproduction; 2) occurs in all cells (my-toes-ees); 3) daughter cells are identical to parent (same # of chromosomes). MEIOSIS: 1) sexual reproduction; 2) occurs in sex cells (my-oh-sees); 3) daughter cells are different than parent 1/2 # of chromosomes).
This is what keeps the moon in orbit around the earth, and it is also what causes tides to occur in the ocean. The Sun Tide The tides are caused mainly by the gravitational attraction of the moon and the earth, but there is also a gravitational attraction between the earth and the sun. The effect of the sun upon the tides is not as significant as the moonâs effects. Basically, the sunâs pull can heighten the moonâs effects or counteract them, depending on where the moon is in relation to the sun. Source(s): ~Miss Curious~ Â· 7 years ago.
Tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun. The tide itself is actually a huge wave with an extremely long wavelength. The wavelength is so long that it is only easily observed in the ocean because of it's size. Tides do occur in lakes and ponds they just aren't noticible. Seas and Oceans have space which air can flow freely without stopped by any objects where as in lake or pond ,the water is less and not that much air flow freely. So the air makes large waves in seas and oceans than the lakes and ponds.
