Description
of resource:
This resource is an excellent tool to assist students in understanding the similarities and differences that exist between mitosis and meiosis. The resource makes use of Flash animation to visually model both processes side-by-side and provide adequate textual support to dispel misconceptions and develop a more comprehensive understanding of these two processes.
