AI Thread Summary
Meiosis is a two-part cell division process that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in four genetically diverse gametes. The process includes two main stages: meiosis I, where homologous chromosomes are separated, and meiosis II, which separates sister chromatids. Key events include crossing over during prophase I, which increases genetic variation. Resources like PhSchool.com and CellsAlive.com provide step-by-step explanations and visual aids to enhance understanding. These tools are recommended for anyone seeking a clearer grasp of meiosis.

Would someone be able to explain the process of meisois to me in a relatively simple way that I will be able to understand. Becasue i really don't understand it.
Thank-you heaps in advanced.:smile:

Thread 'Prove that evolution is constant (Provide at least two arguments to support your position)'

I don't get how to argue it. i can prove: evolution is the ability to adapt, whether it's progression or regression from some point of view, so if evolution is not constant then animal generations couldn`t stay alive for a big amount of time because when climate is changing this generations die. but they dont. so evolution is constant. but its not an argument, right? how to fing arguments when i only prove it.. analytically, i guess it called that (this is indirectly related to biology, im...
