Nimitz class aircraft carrier design. The more recent Nimitz Class carriers (CVN72-CVN76) have a displacement of 102,000t when fully loaded. They have a length of 317m and beam of 40.8m.
Each of these daughter cells has to contain 23 chromosomes, half of the original 46. Again these steps must occur in this exact order or the resulting cells will have an incorrect number of chromosomes.  It has probably become obvious at this point that mitosis and meiosis are not simple processes.
This reduction-division insures that when sperm cells and egg cells unite and add their chromosomes to each other, that the normal chromosome number for the organism will be preserved. If there was no reduction-division, the chromosome number in the cells of the organism would double with each new generation.
