When referring to the context of a cell cycle, mitosis is the division process where the DNA of a cell's nucleus is split into two uniform chromosomes. Mitosis consists of four fundamental phases: prophase, metaphase, telophase, and anaphase. In prophase, the chromosomes thicken and shorten while in metaphase the chromosomes all rally to the center of the cell. Anaphase- the Chromatids fall apart at the centromere and head to opposite poles. Lastly, in telophase, multiple nuclei form after atomic envelopes re-create around each group of chromosomes (Fowler, Roush, & Wise, 2021).

Meiosis is an important form of cell division where each daughter cell lets in half the amount of DNA as the parent cell. This process takes place during the formation of egg and sperm cells. This type of cell division ultimately reduces the number of chromosomes by half in parent cells and creates four essential gamete cells (Fowler, Roush, & Wise, 2021).]]> 2023-02-05 01:19:41 UTC https://padlet.com/damronm562/210varz5uq4lrdhk/wish/2468708875 In contrast, mitosis creates two identical daughter cells via a singular parent cell, although meiosis produces cells that are genetically distinct from the parent and contain half the amount of DNA. damronm562 https://padlet.com/damronm562/210varz5uq4lrdhk/wish/2468731876   Mendel's law of independent assortment believes that when gametes are created, each pair of alleles segregate characteristically, and independently of other pairs of cells. Mendel's law also believes that the inheritance of a single pair of factors (genes) is ultimately independent of the other pair.]]> 2023-02-05 02:53:25 UTC https://padlet.com/damronm562/210varz5uq4lrdhk/wish/2468731876 https://padlet.com/damronm562/210varz5uq4lrdhk/wish/2468740471 2023-02-05 03:25:24 UTC https://padlet.com/damronm562/210varz5uq4lrdhk/wish/2468740471
