Mitosis is a four-stage process that creates two identical cells from one original cell. In Mitosis chromosome the cell divides intotwo identical sets daughter nuclei. in mitosis the mother cell divides into two daughter cells which are genetically identical toeach other and to the parent cell.Meiosis is a reduction cell division where the number of chromosomes is divided into half. In Meiosis it gametes formationsoccur in animal cell and meiosis is necessary for sexual reproduction. The meiosis has 6 phase: Meiosis I, Prophase I ,Metaphase<span>I, Anaphase I, Telophase I, Meiosis II</span>
<h3><u>Comparison between Galapagos penguin and cold adapted Emperor penguin of Antarctica:</u></h3>
<u>Galapagos penguin:</u>
- Galapagos penguins are the only species of penguins that live north of the Equator.
- The Galapagos penguins breed all-round the year.
- The Galapagos penguins are smaller compared to the cold-adapted emperor penguins of Antarctica.
- The breeding and nesting place of the Galapagos penguins lie on the shoreline.
<u>Emperor penguin:</u>
- The emperor penguins live and adapt to the cold Antarctic environment.
- The Emperor penguins breed only during the Antarctic winters.
- The nesting of emperor penguins is on ice cliffs and icebergs where the eggs are protected from the strong and cold Antarctic winds.
- However, both of these species of penguins are at risk of extinction due to the rise in temperature and shortage of foods.
