2. Cell division - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

   Interphase is the process through which a cell must go before mitosis, meiosis, and cytokinesis. [15] Interphase consists of three main phases: G 1 , S , and G 2 . G 1 is a time of growth for the cell where specialized cellular functions occur in order to prepare the cell for DNA replication. [ 16 ]

3. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

   The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

4. Meiomitosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiomitosis

   During meiosis, there are 2 sets of cell divisions, the second division is similar to mitosis in that sister chromatids are directly separated. However, in the first meiotic division the sister chromatids are held together by cohesins and segregated from their homologous pair of cohesion bound sister chromatids after resolution of recombination ...

6. Sexual reproduction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_reproduction

   The nuclei from the gametes fuse, and each gamete contributes half of the genetic material of the zygote. Multiple cell divisions by mitosis (without change in the number of chromosomes) then develop into a multicellular diploid phase or generation. In plants, the diploid phase, known as the sporophyte, produces spores by

7. Origin and function of meiosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Origin_and_function_of_meiosis

   Mitosis is the normal process in eukaryotes for cell division; duplicating chromosomes and segregating one of the two copies into each of the two daughter cells, in contrast with meiosis. The mitosis theory states that meiosis evolved from mitosis. [9]
