normal grep would have searched only for lines with a literal +. fgrep. fgrep is an acronym that stands for Fixed-string Global Regular Expressions Print. fgrep (which is the same as grep -F) is fixed or fast grep and behaves as grep but does NOT recognize any regular expression meta-characters as being special.
. Meiosis results in the direct production of gametes. 2. A cell that has successfully completed meiosis has a chromosome number called Haploid. 3. If a species normally has 52 chromosomes, the cells it produces by Meiosis will each have 26 chromosomes.
This type of cell division results in the production of gametes (eggs or sperm). Meiosis is much more complex than mitosis. Whereas mitosis involves the duplication and subsequent division of chromosomes, meiosis involves two divisions of genetic material. As is the case in mitosis, in meiosis the cell duplicates its chromosome number prior to beginning cellular division. Then nuclear division, the sorting out of the genetic material, begins, and unfolds over the course of 2 cellular divisions that result in 4 gametes.
