Detailed explanation-1: -At the end of mitosis, the two daughter cells will be exact copies of the original cell. Each daughter cell will have 30 chromosomes. At the end of meiosis II, each cell (i.e., gamete) would have half the original number of chromosomes, that is, 15 chromosomes.
Detailed explanation-2: -Mitosis Inhibits DNA Double-Strand Break Repair to Guard Against Telomere Fusions. Science, 2014; DOI: 10.1126/science.
Detailed explanation-3: -The cell copies its chromosomes, but then separates the 23 pairs to ensure that each daughter cell has only one copy of each chromosome. A second division that divides each daughter cell again to produce four daughter cells.
Detailed explanation-4: -By inducing chromosome segregation defects, mitotic DNA damage can lead to telomere fusions and structural aberrations leading to chromosome translocations.
