  • When does a cell have two nuclei during cell division?

    A cell has two nuclei during telophase, just before cytokinesis completes cell division.
  • What are the three main types of cell division, and in which types of organisms do they occur?

    The three main types of cell division are binary fission, mitosis, and meiosis. Binary fission occurs in prokaryotic cells (like bacteria and archaea), while mitosis and meiosis occur in eukaryotic cells.
  • Why is DNA replication necessary before cell division, and what does it ensure for the daughter cells?

    DNA replication is necessary before cell division to ensure that each daughter cell receives a complete copy of the DNA, allowing them to function properly.
