Comparing Meiosis (“Special” Cell Division) to Mitosis (“Regular” Cell Division)
MITOSIS
Does the cell have interphase—
(does it copy all its DNA)—before
each process occurs?
Summarize the overall purpose or
goal of each process.
How many stages to each
process are there? List/name
each stage.
In an animal, where would we
find cells that undergo each
process?
In a plant, where would we find
cells that undergo each process?
Does each process change the
number of chromosomes per
cell?
How many daughter cells does
each process make?
How similar are the daughter
cells each process makes?
When, in a human’s life, do the
cells start to have each process?
