Mitosis is where a cell (mother cell) duplicates it’s chromosomes then separates them. Two daughter cells are identically created from the separation of these chromosomes. It is imperative that each daughter cell gets identical chromosomes otherwise there can be consequences for that person.

Mitosis consists of five important phases Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. This cycle is imperative to efficiently separate the chromosomes from the mother cell to create the two new daughter cells.

“During which the cytoplasmic components of the daughter cells are separated either by an actin ring (animal cells) or by the cell plate formation (plant cells).” (Fowler, Roush, Wise, 2023)

This is the nuclear division process where four haploid cells are created.

# data[].attributes.body
Haploid cells are part of the sexual reproduction cycle, which creates the success resulting in sexual reproduction. Almost all eukaryotic organisms go through meiosis and fertilization to reproduce. During Meiosis the genes are mixed in different combinations throughout the division of the nucleus. Which then is the reason of the variations in the offsprings.

“Genes do not influence each other with regard to the sorting of alleles into gametes, and every possible combination of alleles for every gene is equally likely to occur.” (Fowler, Roush, Wise, 2023)
