Mitosis (cell division) division is new generations of cells arising through the division of pre-existing cells. It is different in Prokaryons and Eukaryons. *Cell division in Prokaryotes: -Prokaryons have a single, circular DNA molecule attached to the plasma membrane. -Chromosomes are attached to membrane, and replicate. -Cell growth occurs. -Eventually plasma membrane pinches inward forming two new cells. -Referred to as Binary Cell Division (binary fission). *Cell division in Eukaryotes: -Involves two processes: Nuclear division (division of nuclear DNA) and Cytokinesis (physical division of cell.). -Two types of cell division are meiosis and mitosis which are nuclear division processes sorting and distributing DNA instructions. -Both forms of division are usually accompanied by Cytokinesis. -Each cell of a new generation must receive hereditary information and enough cytoplasm machinery to start up its own operation. MEIOSIS & MITOSIS *Though the two processes have a lot in common (similar mechanisms and limited to Eukaryons), they vary in their end result.
