Meiosis results in 4 daughter cells, while Mitosis produces 2 daughter cells
|
|
|
Cells produced by meiosis are all genetically different
|
|
|
Both b and c are correct
|
Detailed explanation-1: -Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis results in four sex cells.
Detailed explanation-2: -Daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid, while those resulting from meiosis are haploid. Daughter cells that are the product of mitosis are genetically identical. Daughter cells produced after meiosis are genetically diverse. Tetrad formation occurs in meiosis but not mitosis.
Detailed explanation-3: -Meiosis and mitosis both have a prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase and cytokinesis.
Detailed explanation-4: -Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in the formation of four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. Mitosis is the type of cell division that results in the formation of two daughter cells each with the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent cell.
