Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Cell Division: The Cell Cycle and Mitosis: Interphase
Learn about what happens to the cell during interphase in this video. Video will review how the cell prepares for cell division including chromosome changes, centromeres, and many more. [8:27]
Khan Academy
Khan Academy: Cell Division: Meiosis: Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis
A video discussing the similarities and differences between the processes of mitosis and meiosis. Learn how mitosis results in two identical diploid cell while meiosis results in four haploid genetically different cells. [5:50]
Khan Academy
