Cell division through Mitosis PMAT stages explained and meiosis is fundamental to life, enabling growth, repair, and reproduction. This comprehensive guide covers the intricate processes of cell division, their differences, and key cellular components.
- Mitosis produces two identical diploid cells through one division cycle (PMAT)
- Meiosis creates four unique haploid cells through two division cycles (PMAT I and PMAT II)
- Cell components like chromosomes, centrioles, and spindle fibers play crucial roles
- Understanding homologous pairs and sister chromatids is essential for both processes
- Cell cycles and reproduction methods vary between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells
