similarities and differences between mitosis and meiosis?

Independent assortment is the random assignment of maternal and paternal
chromosomes. Its outcome is diversity in genetic combinations. ✅What is independent
assortment? What is its outcome?

The steps of the cell cycle are G1, S, and G2. In G1, a cell grows. In S, the cell
continues to grow as it copies its chromosomes. In G2, the cell that continues to grow
as it copies its chromosomes then grows more as it completes preparations for cell
division. ✅List the steps of the cell cycle and briefly explain what happens in each.
