Chapter 11.5, Problem 2R
Summary Introduction
To review:
The comparison between the prophase of mitosis with prophase I of meiosis and the anaphase of mitosis with anaphase I stage of meiosis.
Introduction:
The cell cycle is divided into four major phases that are the M (mitosis phase), G (gap) 1 phase, G2 phase, and S (synthesis) phase. The M phase is further divided into interphase, metaphase, prophase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis.
