* 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 actually waves, the biggest waves on the planet, and they cause the sea to rise and fall along the shore around the world. Tides exist thanks to the gravitational pull of the moon and the sun, but vary depending on where the moon and sun are in relation to the ocean as the earth rotates on its axis.
