"The following question refers to the essential steps in meiosis described below.

1. formation of four new nuclei, each with half the chromosomes present in the parental nucleus
2. alignment of homologous chromosomes at the metaphase plate
3. separation of sister chromatids
4. separation of the homologs; no uncoupling of the centromere
5. synapsis; chromosomes moving to the middle of the cell in pairs

Which of the steps take(s) place in both mitosis and meiosis?"

A) 5
B) 2
C) 2, 3, and 5
D) 3
E) 2 and 3 only

D) 3. separation of sister chromatids

Explanation:

The cells in the human body, show certain characteristics that is particular to them. One of the characteristics of a cell is its ability to divide also known as Cell Division.

We have two major ways by which cells divide in the human body and they are:

a. Mitosis: This is a cell division whereby the parent cell also know as the chromosomes are divided or separated into two daughter cells also known as nuclei that have the same genetic property as the parent cell.

b. Meiosis: This is the cellular division that occurs during reproduction. It is when the reproductive cell either the egg or sperm in divided into four cells.

Mitosis and Meiosis share a common similarities which is during the process of cellular division, the cells are always divided into sister chromatids another term that represents and can also be called daughter cells.

i got something better   a catchphrase here it is

what the squwock

explanation:

answer: accepted answer: aquatic animals use the oxygen dissolved in water to carry out respiration. since the amount of dissolved oxygen in water is low as compared to the amount of oxygen in the air, therefore the rate of breathing in aquatic animals is much faster than it is in terrestrial animals.
