Meiosis and mitosis are the two most crucial processes that eukaryotes use to create their genomes during sexual reproduction. Meiosis and mitosis differ in a number of ways, including: Meiosis I involves the rearrangement of chromosomes with homologous centromeres, known as reduction division, and Meiosis II involves the segregation of sister centromeres (equational division) (Meyer et al. 2010). Initially, meiosis is defined as a single round of DNA replication, followed by two main processes. Parthenogenesis in mammalian cells was initially reported in 2006, when the cells were assessed for pluri potency and differentiation plasticity in vitro and in vivo (Pennarossa et al., 2011). The process of developing embryos from unfertilized oocytes is known as "in vitro parthenogenesis," and it can be induced in a number of animals, including mammals. The prospective uses of this approach in stem cell research, reproductive biology, and agricultural developments have drawn interest. Certain triggers, including raising cytoplasmic free calcium levels, can cause parthenogenesis in mammalian oocytes (Kharche & Birade, 2013). There are several activation techniques, but because the process is specific to each species, they must be customized (Kharche & Birade, 2013). Cloning, somatic cell nuclear transfer, and the production of pluripotent stem cell lines—all essential for tissue engineering—can be accomplished with activated oocytes (Kharche & Birade, 2013).
