Shopping carts tend to be found in the parking lot of French supermarkets; to use one, you will need a one Euro coin. You will need the coin to unlatch the shopping cart; you get your coin back when you re-latch your cart. Click here to see photos of this process.
The Meiosis Cell Cycle. Meiosis has two cycles of cell division, conveniently called Meiosis I and Meiosis II. Meiosis I halves the number of chromosomes and is also when crossing over happens. Meiosis II halves the amount of genetic information in each chromosome of each cell. The end result is four daughter cells called haploid cells.
Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells. The old name for meiosis was reduction/ division. Meiosis I reduces the ploidy level from 2n to n (reduction) while Meiosis II divides the remaining set of chromosomes in a mitosis-like process (division). Most of the differences between the processes occur during Meiosis I.
