Meiosis is covered in section 3.4.3
Meiosis is a different type of cell division from mitosis. AQA covers it separately in section 3.4.3, not here.
Real World
In AQA exam papers, questions on meiosis appear in the genetics section, not the cell division section — confusing the two topics is a common source of lost marks.
Exam Focus
Never describe meiosis when a question is set in the 3.2.2 context; check the topic area before writing.
