Question
Chapter 9, Problem 3RQ
Summary Introduction
To draw:
The stages of mitosis. Also, to determine how mitosis ensures each daughter nucleus receives a full set of chromosomes.
Concept introduction:
Mitosis is a type of cell division, which results in the formation of two identical daughter cells. Mitosis (M phase) takes place after the interphase in the cell cycle. It only occurs in vegetative cells and the ploidy of the cells remains the same. So, it is also called the equational division.
