Cellular Division Mechanisms
Words: 634 Pages: 2 5374Mitosis is a fundamental biological process that ensures the continuity of life by facilitating the division of a single cell, often referred to as the "mother" cell, into two genetically identical cells, known as the "daughter" cells. This intricate process is essential for growth, development, and tissue repair in multicellular organisms. Mitosis accomplishes this by precisely duplicating the cell's nuclear chromatin, which houses the DNA, and distributing it equally between the two daughter cells. The process of mitosis is a […]
