Summary Introduction

To explain: The difference between cleavage and the cell division taking place in cells after cleavage.

Introduction: The tremendous alterations occur in the cell number, organization, as well as complexity between fertilization and physical maturity. Only a single cell is present at fertilization and at maturity, there are around 75 trillion cells in the body. The cell division is accountable for the increase in the number of cells.
