-Prophase: During this preparation phase DNA forms into chromosomes that continue to breakdown.

-Metaphase: During this execution phase the chromosomes align along the center.

-Anaphase: During this phase separation occurs and there is grand importance on ensuring there are the same amount of chromosomes as the parent cell.

-Telophase: During this phase a breakdown occurs and the nuclear membranes and nucleoli reform.

-Cytokinesis: During this phase the final split occurs between the parent cell and two identical daughter cells.

Meiosis is broken down into two phases. Phase I and Phase II. During Phase one the following steps take place in order to separate chromosomes.

-Prophase: During this phase duplicated genetic material is separated.

-Metaphase: During this phase division in chromosomes take place. At this point the chromosomes become visible and distinguishable.

-Anaphase: During this phase there is a guarantee that duplicate chromatids separate into two equal sets.

-Telophase: During this phase the chromosomes have moved into opposite ends of a cell.

During phase II the same phases take place for a second time to separate sister chromatids.

Unlike Mitosis after the final cytokinesis phase instead of two identical daughter cells. There are four gamete cells.

"Mendel’s law of dominance states that in a heterozygote, one trait will conceal the presence of another trait for the same characteristic. For example, when crossing true-breeding violet-flowered plants with true-breeding white-flowered plants, all of the offspring were violet-flowered, even though they all had one allele for violet and one allele for white." (Fowler et al., 2021). This means that the stronger trait will show. If you think of it as it being seen in humans some children tend to bare a stronger resemblance to one parent than the other. This is where the term "Strong Genes" is commonly used but it is actually a part of Mendel's law of dominance.

Cross over events produce genetic variation. "A single crossover event between homologous non-sister chromatids leads to a reciprocal exchange of equivalent DNA between a maternal chromosome and a paternal chromosome." (Fowler et al., 2021). This creates a recombinant of genes that did not exist prior.
