The graphic to the left of this text is a picture of the mitosis and meiosis process.It shows what happens during each proccess. And it shows what steps happen differently in each proccess.
This resource will take you to a website that will explain the whole proccess of mitosis.
The link for this resource will lead you to a website that will teach you all about meiosis and why it happens.
The website that this link will take to you to will explain why the the cell cycle is neccessary for cells.
SUMMARY
In this unit, we learned abut the cell cycle, mitosis, and meosis. The cell cycle is a neccesary process that all cells must go through in order to reproduce. If it werent for the cell cycle, after cells died that would be it. There would be oting to come after it, it just be gone and we wouldnt survive nearly as long as we would if our cells went through the cell cycle. Asexual cells go through a proccess called mitosis. There are six phases in mitosis. Aftre all those phases are complete the result is 2 new cells. The process that humans go through is called meiosis. Meiosis consist of 2 divisons with a grand total of 3 phases. At the end of meiosis you end up with 4 new cells.
My favorite part about this unit was learning about why female and male sex cells have to unite in order to make a baby. I would like to lean more about why cells carry all the dna and how that results in a baby.
