Cells starting mitosis and meiosis begin with what set of chromosomes. true or false

with haploid or diploid set of chromosomes. True

Explanation:

There are two types of cells in the body, haploid cells and diploid cells. The biggest difference is related to the number of chromosomes that each cell contains, while diploid cells contain two chromosomes (2n), haploid cells contain a chromosome (1n).

Features:

1. A haploid cell has only one set of chromosomes (n), while diploid cells have two sets of chromosomes (2n).

2. In humans, somatic cells are diploid, while gametes are haploid.

3. Diploid cells develop as a result of mitotic cell division, while haploid cells develop as a result of meiotic cell division.

4. Mitosis produces 2 identical daughter cells, where both stem and daughter cells are diploid. In meiosis, a diploid cell divides twice to produce 4 haploid daughter cells.

5. Humans and most animals are considered diploid organisms, while algae and fungi are examples of organisms that are haploid in most of their lives. Male bees, wasps and ants are also haploid.

cells use diffusion to get substances in and out of themselves. that diffusion will occur across the cell membrane or the outer covering of the cell. because we are talking about the surface of the cell, surface area and volume are  important factors here. as a cell increases in size, its surface area and volume increase as well.  we call that the surface area to volume ratio (sa: vol).  but the catch is that  volume increases at a greater rate than surface  area. in other words, as a cell gets bigger, the sa: vol gets smaller. so a really small cell like bacteria is mostly cell membrane (surface) with very little contents (volume). a really big cell like an egg, is mostly insides with a super thin membrane. so what ends up happening is that the cell cannot efficiently diffuse all of the stuff it needs in/out to survive. therefore cell size is limited to about 100mm. so how do we make organisms bigger than 100mm? cells divide! by dividing and becoming multicellular, organisms are able to grow!   check out the diagrams i attached to see the effect of sa: vol. i hope this ! good luck!
