Amitosis

Amitosis is the direct division of cell nuclei, in which the nucleus is divided into two, without the participation of the process of mitosis.

In amitosis, the cell nucleus is simply laced into two parts. In this case, chromosomes do not condense and do not diverge to the poles of the cell, as during mitosis. The fission spindle is not formed.

Amitosis is widespread among prokaryotes, as well as among unicellular eukaryotes. In multicellular organisms, amitosis occurs extremely rarely, mainly in connective tissue cells.

Thus, amitosis is a primitive method of cell division in which direct division of the nucleus occurs without the participation of complex mechanisms characteristic of mitosis. This type of division is widespread among prokaryotes and protozoa, but is rare in multicellular organisms.



Amitosis is one of the types of division of cell nuclei, in which direct division of the nucleus into two parts occurs, without the participation of mitosis. This process provides an increase in cell number without increasing cell size and is used in a variety of tissue types.

Unlike mitosis, which is a more complex process, amitosis occurs without the formation of mitotic fur, spindle fibers and chromosomes. Instead, the nucleus simply splits into two parts, which then form two separate nuclei.

Amitosis is often observed in rapidly growing tissues such as epithelium and can be caused by various factors such as injury, infection and cancer. Under these conditions, amitosis can occur faster than mitosis and promote rapid cell growth and tumor development.

However, amitosis can also be observed under normal conditions, when cells need rapid renewal. For example, amitosis can occur in the intestinal epithelium to ensure rapid renewal of these tissues.

Although amitosis is a simpler process than mitosis, its role in various conditions still requires more research. However, understanding the mechanisms of amitosis may help improve the treatment of diseases associated with rapid cell growth, such as cancer.



Amitosis is a type of binary division of the cell nucleus in which there is no division of the cytoplasm and, therefore, organelles are not damaged. Ambiotic is divided directly into two new cells - a form of amitosis called self-limitation (amitotic). The process is inherent in cells that have slow reproduction
