Mr. Steinman,
I have urgent news for you. I know that you and your biology students have been studying the phases of the cell cycle
and I thought that you and your class could help me. I have also been studying the phases of the cell cycle and now have
quite a conundrum on my hands. While doing my research, I came across something extraordinary. It appears to be some
other type of cell division. Unlike mitosis, which has an end result of 2 identical cells, this other process seems to end
with 4, non-identical cells. I am stumped as to how such a process could happen. Unfortunately, I was only able to see
three cells going through this other process. I have included my drawings of these observations. Do you think that you
and your students could help me fill in the gaps? If so, I would be forever grateful.
Good luck!
Your Friend,
Dr. Chen
