Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Cell division is the process by which cell divided to give two daughter cells. The process of cell division includes distribution of genetic material (nuclear division) and cytoplasmic (cytokinesis) contents to new daughter cells. Mitosis and Meiosis are the two nuclear division in which genetic material is transferred to daughter nucleus resulting various ploidy. There are several steps involved in both mitosis and meiosis which share similarities.
