The resulting product is a black, odorless powder. The charcoal is then activated through a special process that makes lots of holes and crevices on the charcoal particles to increase surface area and available binding sites. One teaspoonful of activated charcoal has about the same total surface area as a football field!
No: 22. Mitosis: Two chromatids of a chromosome (Progeny cells) are genetically similar. The genetic constitution of the daughter cells is identical to that of the parent cells. Meiosis: Two chromatids of a chromosome (Progeny cells) are often genetically different due to crossing over. The genetic constitution of the daughter cells differs from that of the parent cell. The chromosomes of daughter cells usually contain a mixture of maternal and paternal genes.
The key feature of mitosis is that the daughter cells have the same chromosome number and are otherwise identical to the parent cell. Meiosis Introduction Mitosis, as just reviewed above, is a process by which a cell can reproduce itself and the number of chromosomes and the nature of the DNA will be identical to the original parent cell.
