Mitosis is one of the most important things that occur in life. There is a process in which cells develop all of their content, including the chromosomes (Klaasen & Kops, 2022). This happens at the point where the cell splits into two identical daughter cells. Since this process is complicated, therefore, each step is restraint by certain set genes. Wrong mitotical regulations cause diseases whose one manifestation is cancer.

meiosis is responsible for making sure that in the next generation, the number of chromosomes per individual is the same as it is in the current generation. It is a two-stepped procedure that decreases the chromosome number by half such as from 46 to 23, thus, makes gametes-sperm and eggs.

The exchange of genes between homologous chromosomes, which carry two different alleles of one particular gene, is called recombination (Klaasen & Kops, 2022). The independent make-up happens when the homologous chromosomes unite and appear randomly on metaphase I, producing a different assortment of alleles in the future generation of gametes. Thus, according to Mendel's second law of segregation, muts of various genes behave independently in terms of forming gametes.
