All cell divisions, regardless of organism, are preceded by a single round of DNA replication. For simple unicellular organisms such as the amoeba, one cell division is equivalent to reproduction â an entire new organism is created.
However, Hamlet's outbursts of aggression at certain instances of the play shows that Hamlet's other tragic flaw is his tendency to take rash actions-the polar opposite of indecisiveness. Ironically, the combination of these two traits, Hamlet's indecision and sudden rash actions, lead to his downfall.
Hamlet did not intend to kill Laertes. It was supposed to be a friendly duel, but Laertes had secretly poisoned the tip of his foil. As soon as Laertes scored a hit (a tiny cut) on Hamlet, Hamlet was doomed. However it took a few minutes for the poison to take effect. Hamlet, not knowing he'd been poisoned, continued to fence. In the scuffle, they both dropped their foils and Hamlet unknowingly picked up Laertes foil. Then after Hamlet scored a hit against Laertes, Laertes was poisoned too. The poison killed Laertes before it killed Hamlet. Before Laertes died, he and Hamlet exchanged forgiveness.
