Meiosis and mitosis
Meiosis is the process by which one diploid eukaryotic cell divides to generate four haploid cells often called gametes
Mitosis is the process by which a cell duplicates its genetic information (DNA) , in order to generate two identical daughter cells .

The series of events that all cells go through is called the Cell Cycle. In this cycle, there are 3 phases, Quiescent or the resting stage, Interphase when the cell is gathering nutrients and preparing for the final stage, Mitosis. Mitosis consists of 5 phases
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis. This is when the cell replicates its dna, organs, and other necessities and at the end splits.
