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. Meiomitosis - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meiomitosis

   The collision of mitosis and meiosis (first division) pathways could cause abnormal chiasma formation, abnormal cohesion expression, and mitotic/meiotic spindle defects that could result in insertions, deletions, abnormal segregation, DNA bridging, and potentially failure of cell division altogether resulting in polyploidy.

4. 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.

5. 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]

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

8. Nondisjunction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nondisjunction

   In general, nondisjunction can occur in any form of cell division that involves ordered distribution of chromosomal material. Higher animals have three distinct forms of such cell divisions: Meiosis I and meiosis II are specialized forms of cell division occurring during generation of gametes (eggs and sperm) for sexual reproduction, mitosis is the form of cell division used by all other cells ...
