Meiosis helps in conserving the specific chromosome number across generations and increases genetic variability for evolution.

Describe the stages of meiosis II.

Meiosis II ends with telophase II, where chromosomes are enclosed by a nuclear envelope and cytokinesis leads to the formation of four haploid daughter cells.

Explain the role of mitosis in the cell cycle.

Mitosis is the phase of cell division where the genetic material is equally divided into two daughter cells.

What are the phases of the cell cycle?

<p>The cell cycle consists of interphase and mitosis (M phase). Interphase is further divided into G1, S, and G2 phases.</p> Signup and view all the answers
