 Mitosis is a process of cell
division in which a single cell
divides to produce two
identical daughter cells.
Mitosis occur Somatic cells for
growth, repair, and
maintenance of tissues and
organs.
⦿ The chromatin
condensed together
to create visible
chromosomes.
⦿ The spindle fibers
also begin to form
⦿ Migration of the two
pairs of the
centrioles to the
opposite sides of the
cell.
⦿ Thinning and
gradual
disappearance of
nuclear envelope.
⦿ Metaphase is marked
by the alignment of all
the chromosomes at the
equatorial plane of the
cell (the metaphase
plate).
⦿ The nuclear membrane
dissolves
completely, marking the
beginning of
metaphase.
⦿ Attachment of the the
spindle fibers to the
centromere of the
chromosome at a
point called
kinetochore.
⦿ Movements of
the
chromosomes
occurs due to
shortening of
spindle
microtubules and
kinetochore
movement along
the spindle fibers.
⦿ Migration and
arrival of the new
chromosomes to
the opposite
poles of the cell.
⦿ During
stage,
this daughter
chromosomes arrive at
opposite poles of cell
and the spindle
fibers disappear.
⦿ The
change
chromosomes
chromatin and
into
become
under the
invisible
light
⦿ microscope.
Nuclear envelope
begins to form
the new
around
nuclei.
⦿ Cytokinesis or
cleavage of the
cytoplasm of the
cell begins.
Meiosis is a type of cell
division that occurs in
sexually reproducing
organisms to produce
gametes (sperm and egg
cells). It involves two
successive divisions that
result in four daughter
cells
Meiosis I begins with one diploid
parent cell and ends with two
haploid daughter cells. This
results in halving the number of
chromosomes in each cell.
Meiosis II starts with two haploid
parent cells and ends with four
haploid daughter cells.
