    Mitosis: Cell Division

    Mitosis cell division is essential for the growth and repair of an organism. Mitosis involves four main stages: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, followed by cytokinesis, the final stage where the cell physically divides into two identical daughter cells. The proper execution of mitosis is critical for the accurate replication and segregation of DNA and…

    Meiosis: Cell Division

    The text explains the process of meiosis, which is a type of cell division that produces reproductive cells or gametes. Meiosis reduces the chromosome number by half and is divided into two rounds of cell division: meiosis I and meiosis II. In meiosis I, the chromosomes pair up with their homologous partner, exchange genetic material…
