Bio 181 Chapter 12 And 13. Meiosis And Mitosis
Meiosis and mitosis are both proceeded by one round of DNA replication. Meiosis includes two nuclear divisions and Mitosis produces 2 daughter cells which are genetically identical to the parent cell. Take up the Bio 181 Chapter 12 and 13 on Meiosis and Mitosis and see how well you understood it. All the best!
