Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Cell division involves ____ & ____
A
interphase & mitosis
B
interphase & cytokinesis
C
mitosis & cytokinesis
D
mitosis & meiosis
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Most of the time when people refer to “cell division, ‘’ they mean mitosis, the process of making new body cells. Meiosis is the type of cell division that creates egg and sperm cells. Mitosis is a fundamental process for life.

Detailed explanation-2: -A cell cycle is a series of events that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides. A cell spends most of its time in what is called interphase, and during this time it grows, replicates its chromosomes, and prepares for cell division. The cell then leaves interphase, undergoes mitosis, and completes its division.

Detailed explanation-3: -In particular, eukaryotic cells divide using the processes of mitosis and meiosis.
