Bot GPT 4-o mini 1. Mitosis is the process of cell division in which a single cell divides to produce two identical daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
2. Prokaryotic cells are simpler, typically unicellular organisms without a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles, while eukaryotic cells are more complex, often multicellular, and contain a nucleus and various organelles; both types share fundamental structures such as cell membranes and ribosomes.
3. The endosymbiotic theory posits that eukaryotic cells originated from a symbiotic relationship between different species of prokaryotes, leading to the incorporation of certain prokaryotic cells (like mitochondria and chloroplasts) into eukaryotic cells, which explains their similar structures but with variations arising from evolutionary adaptations.
4. The most recently developed type of microscope is the cryo-electron microscope, which allows for visualization of specimens at very low temperatures to preserve their natural structure.
