Choose the statement that best describes the difference between mitosis and meiosis Mitosis is UNEQUAL division; meiosis is EQUAL with genetic variation. Mitosis separates linked genes; meiosis separates unlinked, independently assorting genes. Mitosis is EQUAL division without genetic variation; meiosis is reduction division with genetic variation. Mitosis requires one S phase; meiosis involves two S phases, one for each division.

Oogenesis

The formation of the ovum (mature female gamete) from undifferentiated germ cells is called oogenesis. This process takes place in the ovaries (female gonads). Oogenesis consists of three stages known as the multiplication phase, growth phase, and maturation phase. 

Cell Division

Cell division involves the formation of new daughter cells from the parent cells. It is a part of the cell cycle that takes place in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Cell division is required for three main reasons:
