The process in which cell are divide in particular state is known as cell divison.there are 2 types meosis and mitosis

Answer 2

Answer:

Cell division is the process by which a parent cell divides into two or more daughter cells. Cell division usually occurs as part of a larger cell cycle. In eukaryotes, there are two distinct types of cell division:  

• Mitosis: a vegetative division, whereby each daughter cell is genetically identical to the parent cell.

• Meiosis: and a reproductive cell division, whereby the number of chromosomes in the daughter cells is reduced by half to produce haploid gametes. Meiosis results in four haploid daughter cells by undergoing one round of DNA replication followed by two divisions.

• Binary Fission: prokaryotes undergo a vegetative cell division known as binary fission, where their genetic material is segregated equally into two daughter cells. While binary fission may be the means of division by most prokaryotes, there are alternative manners of division, such as budding, that have been observed. All cell divisions, regardless of organism, are preceded by a single round of DNA replication.
