CHILD DEVELOPMENT PEDAGOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis is a fundamental process for life. During mitosis, a cell duplicates all of its contents, including its chromosomes, and splits to form two identical daughter cells.

Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is called equational division because each of the two daughter cells formed, get the same number of chromosomes as the parent.

Detailed explanation-3: -Before a cell divides to make two cells, it copies all of its chromosomes. These copies, called sister chromatids, are identical.

Detailed explanation-4: -Another name for cell division is “mitosis.” If you study biology, you’ll learn about cell division, when a cell divides into two smaller “daughter cells.” During cell division, all the tiny elements of the cell also divide-including the cell’s chromosomes, nucleus, and mitochondria.

Detailed explanation-5: -We can think of meiosis as a way cells very carefully count and divide their chromosomes so that each gamete, each egg or sperm, has exactly 23 chromosomes. Then when an egg with its 23 chromosomes is fertilized by a sperm with its 23 chromosomes, the resulting fertilized egg has exactly 46 chromosomes.
