Exam Response (chromosome and Dna) — Cell Division
Mitosis clone. Meiosis reduce and mix. Mutation types named. Karyotype 46. Down named respectfully. One division: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Produces two identical 2n cells. Functions: growth, repair, asexual reproduction, maintenance. This page separates the idea from the wider topic “EXAM RESPONSE (CHROMOSOME AND DNA)” so it can be revised and assessed on its own.

In simple words
- Mitosis clone.
- Crossing over
- Exam link: PMAT vs two divisions.
Important terms

Common exam traps
- Do not treat cell division as the same as every other part of exam response (chromosome and dna); define this unit and use its own evidence, steps, or conditions.
- Do not memorise a label alone; connect the definition to a process, structure, condition, equation, or example.
