This General Biology study guide covers meiosis, genetic variation, chromosome structure, and compares mitosis vs. meiosis, with essential vocabulary and diagrams.
The human body is made up of billions of cells. These cells grow and divide through a process called cell division. There are two types of cell division: mitosis and meiosis. Mitosis is a type of cell ...

Venn: the man behind the famous diagrams – and why his work still matters today
There are two ways cell division can happen in humans and most other animals, called mitosis and meiosis. When a cell divides by way of mitosis, it produces two clones of itself, each with the same number of chromosomes. When a cell divides by way of meiosis, it produces four cells, called gametes.
At its core, meiosis is a type of cell division. But unlike mitosis, which produces two identical daughter cells and is responsible for growth and repair, meiosis is about diversity.
