● Name given to cells formed in meiosis.

Mitosis is a process in which a diploid somatic cell gives rise to two identical
daughter cells that are genetically identical to the main cell, and perform the same
functions. The name given to this formed cells are called gametes.
● When do chromatids separate from chromosomes in meiosis?

From meiosis, the sister chromatids of each chromosome are separated and four
gametes are constituted, in this phase each of the two cells has half of
chromosomes that the germ cell. Causing chromosomes to be compacted
throughout this phase.
● Explain in detail the consequences of meiosis.
It has positive designs for sexual reproduction. One of the main ones are the
different ways in which organisms can vary the DNA of their offspring. When
observing, mythosis is observed, it lacks genetic differentiation in the offspring.
When one is divided by half, it does not modify or affect that children are unique or
diverse. Basically a self -induced cloning method.
Sexual reproduction is more effective because when they have children who have a
different DNA, it results in children who are more likely to survive and prosper.
● At what stage does duplication of centrioles occur?

Mostly in somatic cells, the duplication of the centriole occurs during the S phase
and is mainly characterized by the formation of proximent at the proximal end of
each parental centriole.
● Explain in detail the process of mitosis.

MEIOSIS II OR THE SEND MEIOTIC DIVISION
First its DNA should be rolled well, and replicated chromosomes become visible as
separate units. The chromosome is shortened and thick and can now be seen as
chromatid pairs
The replicated chromosomes (in other words, the previous processes is called in this
way) remain united by each other by their central region: the centromere. While
staying together with each other, the two identical copies of the chromosome are
known as sister chromatids.
Prophase II
Basically the nuclear membrane (which is the limit of the nucleus) decomposes.
Metrophase II
At this stage it has structures similar to the rope, which are called spindle
fibresatchas to the centromer region of the sister chromat pairs. The spindle fibers
chromatid line sister are matched in the center of the cell. This location is known as
Ecuador.
Anaphase II
During this stage, spindle fibers contract and separate sister chromatids from each
other. The sister chromatids are thrown into the opposite ends of the cell: cell poles.
Telofase II
In the stage, sister chromatids are separated, now known as chromosomes. Their
DNA becomes more lazy (incondensate), and the new nuclear membranes form
them.
Two new nuclei are formed. Each nucleus now contains four chromosomes (two sets
of two chromosomes) exactly the same complement as the original main cell. The
cell cytoplasm is divided into two to produce two daughter cells. Daughter cells are
genetically identical because each one contains the same diploid chromosomic
complement as the original main cell.

Hello Daniel, your information is incredible, I gave myself the task of looking for
more, and did you know that the ovules are immobile and relatively larger compared
to the male gamete?
Hello Christian, I was looking at your information, and in the first section I wanted to
add a little more to you, because it seems to me an interesting topic, did you know
that two parents are needed in sexual reproduction, which is very clear, and during
this process, the nucleus of a male gamete fuses with the nucleus of a female
gamete, producing a new cell called a zygote.
