  2. Booting process of Android devices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting_process_of_Android...

    The Android Bootloader (Aboot or ABL), which implements the fastboot interface. Android Bootloader verifies the authenticity of the boot and recovery partitions. [4] By pressing a specific key combination, devices can also boot in recovery mode. Android Bootloader then transfers control to the Linux kernel.

  3. Karyogamy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Karyogamy

    This creates a diploid cell known as a zygote, or a zygospore, [4] which can then enter meiosis, a process of chromosome duplication, recombination, and cell division, to create four new haploid gamete cells. One possible advantage of sexual reproduction is that it results in more genetic variability, providing the opportunity for adaptation ...

  4. Alternation of generations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alternation_of_generations

    A male zygote develops by mitosis into a microsporophyte, which at maturity produces one or more microsporangia. Microspores develop within the microsporangium by meiosis. In a willow (like all seed plants) the zygote first develops into an embryo microsporophyte within the ovule (a megasporangium enclosed in one or more protective layers of ...

  5. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    Mitotic cell division enables sexually reproducing organisms to develop from the one-celled zygote, which itself is produced by fusion of two gametes, each having been produced by meiotic cell division. [5] [6] After growth from the zygote to the adult, cell division by mitosis allows for continual construction and repair of the organism. [7]

  6. Biological life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_life_cycle

    The cycles differ in when mitosis (growth) occurs. Zygotic meiosis and gametic meiosis have one mitotic stage: mitosis occurs during the n phase in zygotic meiosis and during the 2n phase in gametic meiosis. Therefore, zygotic and gametic meiosis are collectively termed "haplobiontic" (single mitotic phase, not to be confused with haplontic).

  8. Gametogenesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gametogenesis

    Gametogenesis is a biological process by which diploid or haploid precursor cells undergo cell division and differentiation to form mature haploid gametes.Depending on the biological life cycle of the organism, gametogenesis occurs by meiotic division of diploid gametocytes into various gametes, or by mitosis.

  9. 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]
