Types of cell visions.
(i) Mitosis : It is a process by which a cell which has previously replicated chromosome in the nucleus of the cell is separated in to two identical sets of chromosome. It is also called equational division.'
(ii) Meiosis : It is one type of reduction division of reproductive cell which takes place mainly during the formation of haploid hamates i.e ova and sperm.
(b) Inter phase
Inter phase is the longest part of cell and is called the resting stage Because the cell is nt dividing in this stage.
Cells grow develop and carry on all heir normal metabolic function during inter phase.
