Mitosis and Cell Division | Cytology

Mitosis is a process of nuclear division in which duplicated chromosomes are faith­fully separated from one another, producing two nuclei, each with one copy of each chro­mosome. The name 'mitosis' comes from the Greek word mitos, meaning 'thread'. It can take place in either diploid somatic or haploid cells like plant gametophytes and male bees.

Comparison between Mitosis and Meiosis

Learn about the comparison between Mitosis and Meiosis. Comparison # Mitosis: 1. Mitosis occurs in all somatic cells of an individual. 2. In mitosis, each DNA-replication cycle is followed by one cell division. The result­ing daughter cells have a diploid number of chromosomes. 3. In mitosis each chromosome behaves independently. 4. In mitosis the genetic material remains constant. 5. Mitosis [...]
