A good tutor links these themes together, making revision more effective and memorable.

Biology lessons in Girton typically cost £21/h per session.

The final cost depends on a few things:

• What level you're studying (KS3, GCSE, A-Level, or university)
• The tutor's qualifications and experience
• Session length and frequency
• The format (online, in-person at home, or at the tutor's location)

Online lessons are often more affordable since there's no travel involved. A first lesson is frequently offered free or at a reduced rate so you can check the fit before committing.

The key distinction: mitosis maintains the full chromosome count (diploid), whereas meiosis halves it (haploid) to prepare for fertilisation.

• Mitosis handles everyday cell replacement, wound healing and tissue growth
• Meiosis creates sperm and egg cells that combine during fertilisation to restore the full chromosome number
• Genetic variation occurs in meiosis through crossing over and independent assortment, making each gamete unique

A helpful way to remember: mitosis makes "mini-me" copies, meiosis mixes things up for reproduction.
