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.
What occurs in meiosis but not mitosis? Mitosis and meiosis are specialized types of cell division, but take place in different locations. Mitosis occurs only in body cells, or somatic cells, while meiosis takes place in the cells of the testes and ovaries, which are the primary reproductive organs. Mitosis is triggered by the coupling of haploid sperm with a haploid egg; this coupling leads to fertilization.
