| (a) | Mitosis |
| (b) | Meiosis I |
| (c) | Meiosis II |
| 1. | Most of the cell organelles duplicate here |
| 2. | Involves protein synthesis |
| 3. | Centriole duplicates in cytoplasm |
| 4. | RNA formation occurs |
| 1. | Only in some lower plants |
| 2. | Both in plants and animals |
| 3. | in most of the animals |
| 4. | Only in some higher plants |
| 1. | Are formed in pachytene stage |
| 2. | Are made up of two non-homologous chromosomes |
| 3. | Are stabilized by synaptonemal complex |
| 4. | Consist of two chromatids only |
| 1. | Telophase of mitosis |
