daughter cell
A cell that is the offspring of a cell that has undergone mitosis or meiosis. The term "daughter" does not indicate the sex of the cell.

daughter cell - one of two cells resulting from the division of a single cell.
daughter chromosomes - produced by the separation of identical sister chromatids in anaphase of mitosis.
Each daughter cell has a complete copy of the genome of its parent cell, and mitosis is complete.

amebula Daughter cell resulting from mitosis and cytokinesis of an encysted ameba.
ametabolous metamorphosis Development in which the number of molts is variable; immature stages resemble adults, and molting continues into adulthood.
Meiosis produces daughter cells that have one half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Meiosis enables organisms to reproduce sexually. Gametes (sperm and eggs) are haploid.
founder cells - daughter cells created by asymmetric cell divisions resembling a stem cell divsion pattern during early cleavage of C. elegans (for example) that will give rise to specific sets of differentiated cells.
The mitotic division of a progenitor cell to give rise to a population of identical daughter cells or clones. (See Directional cloning, Megabase cloning, Molecular cloning, Subcloning.) Coat protein (capsid).
After the completion of binary fission or cell reproduction involving mitosis, each daughter cell has the same amount of DNA (Z) as what the parental cell had before it replicated its DNA.
In order to ensure the inheritance of a complete ensemble of critical internal components by each daughter cell, the cell division process must provide for the segregation of organelles, such as mitochondria, the Golgi apparatus, ...
During mitosis replicated chromosomes are positioned near the middle of the cytoplasm and then segregated so that each daughter cell receives a copy of the original DNA (if you start with 46 in the parent cell, ...
The final, irreversible step in the duplication and distribution of genomes to daughter cells takes place when chromosomes split at the metaphase-toanaphase transition.
Thus, two new genetically identical daughter cells are formed from the parent cell. Eukaryotic cells usually have a number of chromosomes that are divisible by two.
for the daughter cells to begin another round of the cell cycle; specifically to duplicate their chromosomes in the next S phase.
The cell cycle is an ordered set of events, culminating in cell growth and division into two daughter cells. Non-dividing cells not considered to be in the cell cycle. The stages, pictured to the left, are G1-S-G2-M. The G1 stage stands for "GAP 1".
The most frequent process of nuclear division (karyokinesis) in cells that produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other and to the parent cell.
This is followed by a cleavage or division of the whole protoplasmic mass of the cell; and thus two daughter cells are formed, each containing a nucleus.
Chromosome pairs do not disjoin (separate) during cell division so that both chromosomes go to one daughter cell and none to the other. Nondisjunction causes errors in chromosome number (trisomy).

When chromosomes multiply, every time one cell divides into two daughter cells, the DNA of all the chromosomes has to be replicated. But that very sophisticated machinery in the cell that replicates the DNA has a funny glitch.
This process of asymmetric cell division results in two different kinds of daughter cellsone a motile swarmer cell and the other a stalked nonmotile cell.
Cancer is an inheritable disease (at least from cell to daughter cells). Once a cell has become cancerous, all of its descendant cells are cancerous. Gross chromosomal abnormalities are often visible in cancerous cells.
Given good growing conditions, a bacterium grows slightly in size or length, a new cell wall grows through the center forming two daughter cells, each with the same genetic material as the parent cell.
(Science: biology) 22) daughter cell, one of the cells formed by cell division. See cell division, under division.

Meiosis: the process of cell division in which a single cell produces four daughter cells each of which contains half of the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.
At the end of this process, once the DNA is all replicated, the cell actually has twice the amount of DNA that it needs, and the cell can then divide and parcel this DNA into the daughter cell, ...

Mitosis. The replication of a cell to form two daughter cells with identical sets of chromosomes.

The division of the cytoplasm of a cell into two daughter cells and it occurs during Telophase. See karyokinesis.
It duplicates its DNA and the two new cells (daughter cells) have the same pieces and genetic code. Two identical copies come from one original. Start with one; get two that are the same. You get the idea.

Separation of chromosomes or plasmids into daughter cells following DNA replication and cell division.

Mitosis (my-TOE-sis) The type of cell division that eukaryotic cells use to make new body cells. Mitosis results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell.
4. Each cell contains the total hereditary material (genome), which is donated by mother cells to daughter cells.

The cell undergoes 1-4 divisions to form 2-16 daughter cell. This is followed by a split in the mother cell wall and dispersal of the neonatal cells. In a cuture, empty mother cell walls are interspersed with whole cells at a ratio of about 1:4.
