Use the controls below to control a mitosis simulation (on the left) and a meiosis simulation (on the right), in order to explore the difference in the two processes. Each white circle represents a cell.

Biological controls:
Pairs of chromosomes (parent cell):
Crossing over (meiosis only):
Simulation controls:
Number of cycles:
Show animation:
Meiosis:

Total number of cells created: 0
Number of different cells created: 0
Number of unique cells created: 0
