Understanding the steps of meiosis is essential to learning how errors occur. Researchers' initial understanding of meiosis was based upon careful observations of chromosome behavior using light ...

Welcome to Mitosis vs. Meiosis. This half of the screen illustrates mitosis—the division of a cell's nucleus. Along with cytokinesis (the division of the rest of a cell), mitosis results in a ...

Like mitosis, meiosis is a form of eukaryotic cell division. However, these two processes distribute genetic material among the resulting daughter cells in very different ways. Mitosis creates two ...
