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.
In a human life cycle, meiosis occurs to produce the gametes. In males, this is once puberty has started and occurs continuously. In females, meiosis begins while they are in the womb, but hormones produced during puberty allows the process to finish. This is the only time meiosis occurs in the human life cycle. To produce gametes. Mitosis on the other hand occurs once a zygote is produced (the result of fertilization) in order to produce an embryo, fetus, and so on.
