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!
Mitosis and meiosis are multistage processes involving division of the cell. They both involve cellular DNA duplication, splitting the chromosomes into the daughter cells. They both involve degradation and reformation of the nuclear membrane. Continue Reading.
Similarities: Both have the stages prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telephase, and cytokinesis. Both occur in eukaryotic cells. Both have spindle fibers separating the chromosomes. Differences: In mitosis, cells divide once, two diploid cells are made, and are identical to each other. In meiosis, cells divide twice, four haploid cells are made, and are different from each other. Basically, Mitosis produces the cells of the body.
