Question

Both mitosis and meiosis begin with a diploid cell that contains replicated chromosomes. What are the main differences between these two processes, and what types of daughter cells produced by each?

a.Meiosis has four cell divisions and results in four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation, while mitosis has two cell divisions and results in two identical daughter cells.

b.Meiosis has two cell divisions and results in four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation, while mitosis has one cell division and results in two identical daughter cells.

c.Mitosis occurs in gametes to increase genetic variation in daughter cells, while meiosis occurs in body cells for growth and repair.

d.Mitosis produces genetic variation in daughter cells and increases the number of chromosomes, while meiosis occurs in body cells for growth and repair.

Answer 1

The answer is B. Meiosis has two cell divisions and results in four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation, while mitosis has one cell division and results in two identical daughter cells.

Answer 2

Meiosis has two cell divisions and results in four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation, while mitosis has one cell division and results in two identical daughter cells.

Mitosis is a cell division which occurs once to produce two identical

daughter cells and is mostly used by  cells during growth processes and

replacement  of worn-out tissues. Mitosis takes part in the asexual

reproductive process.

Meiosis on the other hand  is a type of cell division  which occurs twice and

forms four unique daughter cells which have only one copy of chromosome

from the parent. Meiosis is involved in sexual reproduction during the

production of sperm and egg cells.
