MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS
Mitosis
Stages
-
-
-
Cytokinesis
Cell division into two cells with the help of cleavage furrow (in animal cells) and the cell plate (in plant cells)
-
Importance
-
Vital for living organisms in terms of growth in size, cell repairment, and production of offsprings
Interphase
Checkpoints
The Metaphase checkpoint is the last step that checks all chromosomes are connected to a spindle thread, thus, cell division will success
-
-
Stages
S Phase
The duplication of the DNA in the nucleus and production of centromeres that are types of microtubule formations helping separation of DNA at the M stage, take place
G2 Phase
Enlargement of the cell and its volume continues while the last preparations as more protein and organelles synthesis for the mitosis are supplied
G1 Phase
The duplication of organelles, cell enlargement physically and production of the molecular units such as RNA and proteins occur
Meiosis
Stages
-
-
-
-
Prophase I
Homologous chromosomes become closely associated (synapsis) to form pairs of chromosomes consisting of four chromatids
