The first stage of mitosis and meiosis, two crucial cellular division processes that support an organism’s growth, repair, and reproduction, is known as prophase.The specifics of what transpires and why differ depending on the cell’s activity in either mitosis or meiosis, even though chromosomal condensation and spindle construction are shared […]
Meiosis
By a process called crossover, meiosis produces genetically different reproductive cells, in contrast to somatic cell division, which splits and copies the DNA identically.
In species capable of sexual reproduction, a form of cell division known as meiosis takes place. Gametes, which are specialized reproductive cells (sperm and eggs) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell, are formed by a carefully controlled process. Making sure that the developing zygote has the […]
