Detailed explanation-1: -The result of mitosis is two identical daughter cells, genetically identical to the original cell, all having 2N chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, whereas meiosis results in four sex cells.
Detailed explanation-3: -Once mitosis is complete, the cell has two groups of 46 chromosomes, each enclosed with their own nuclear membrane. The cell then splits in two by a process called cytokinesis, creating two clones of the original cell, each with 46 monovalent chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-4: -In mitosis a cell divides to form two identical daughter cells. It is important that the daughter cells have a copy of every chromosome, so the process involves copying the chromosomes first and then carefully separating the copies to give each new cell a full set.
Detailed explanation-5: -Mitosis results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to each other. They also have the same chromosome number as the original cell. Meiosis produces four haploid gametes that are genetically different and unique.
