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. Because this process is so critical, the steps of mitosis are carefully controlled by certain genes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division).
Detailed explanation-3: -The resulting cells from meiosis are not genetically identical because of the recombination of genes that occurred during prophase 1. Sex cells in humans are produced by meiosis.
Detailed explanation-4: -The nuclei resulting from meiosis are not genetically identical and they contain one chromosome set only. This is half the number of chromosome sets in the original cell, which is diploid.
Detailed explanation-5: -The gametes produced in meiosis are all haploid, but they’re not genetically identical.
