The NCAA has instituted strict guidelines for eligibility under medical exceptions for banned substances, including stimulants used to treat ADHD/ ADD, medications for male-pattern baldness, peptide hormones (hGH), and anabolic steroids (testosterone) or any other medications banned* by the NCAA.
Meiosis also differs from mitosis in that it involves a process known as recombination, during which chromosomes exchange segments with one another. As a result, the gametes produced during meiosis are genetically unique.
Meiosis is the cell division process that allows for the formation of gametes for sexual reproduction, with the random separation of each chromosome of the individual homologous pairs. These gametes can fertilize gametes from other individuals, promoting the combination of homologous chromosomes from different individuals.
