Question

PLEASE HELP.!
While studying meiosis and mitosis for her genetics test, Marisa made notes of the kinds of cells produced from these processes with examples from the body. Which pairing of the cell produced during meiosis and example is correct?

A) diploid cell: liver cell

B) diploid cell: sperm cell

C) haploid cell: egg cell

D) haploid cell: hair cell

Answer 1

Answer:

C

Explanation:

Answer 2

The pairing of the cell produced during meiosis and correct example is haploid cell: egg cell (Option C).

• A haploid (n) cell contains only a set of homologous chromosomes, whereas a diploid (2n) cell contains two sets of homologous chromosomes.

• Meiosis is a type of reductional cell division by which a parental diploid (2n) cell generates four haploid germinal (egg) daughter cells having half of the genetic material.

• Conversely, mitosis is a type of cell division that produces two genetically identical daughter cells.

• Meiosis produces germinal (sex) cells, whereas mitosis produces somatic (body) cells.

In conclusion, the pairing of the cell produced during meiosis and correct example is haploid cell: egg cell (Option C).
