cell division
process resulting in division and partitioning of components of a cell to form more cells
asymmetric cell division
The asymmetric division of cells to produce two daughter cells with different developmental potentials. It is of fundamental significance for the generation of cell diversity.
reduction
biological process
schizogony
Cell division by multiple fission in which nuclei and other organelles in the parent cell divide repeatedly and move to the cell periphery before internal membranes develop around them, producing a large number of daughter cells simultaneously.
Amitosis
mode of division in which nucleus elongates, constricts in the middle and divides directly into two daughter cells
binary fission
type of cell division
cleavage
division of cells in the early embryo
