Children would probably look more like their parents.
well from what i understand mitosis is just the replication of a cell, a cell divides into two cells and it is not being effected by any other cell so crossing over cant occur Crossing over occurs in meiosis to create diversity in the genetic material so the offspring is neither identical to father or mother. in mitosis it does not occur because the parent cell is making an identical copy of itself, so the DNA does not need to vary.
Prophase is one of the stages in the process of mitosis, the stages of mistosis are : 1. Prophase 2. Metaphase 3. Anaphase 4. Telophase. So metaphase, anaphase, and telophase are what happends in mitosis and does not happen in prophase. And what happens in prophase that does not in mitosis is that the sister chromatids that were formed during interphase have shortened and thickened and are now visible with a light microscope.
mitosis or meiosis
During the process of mitosis, the nucleus divides!
Replication would not be associated with DNA during mitosis.
reasorment of chromosomes can occur during meosis by crossing over

Cells formed from mitosis are diploid and are identical (if no mutations occurred during DNA replication) to the parent cell. Cells formed during meiosis are haploid and are different than the parent cell (due to the process of crossing over). Note that mitosis produced only 2 daughter cells whereas meiosis produces four.
Yes. However, crossing over occurs much less frequently in somatic cells than in meiotic cells. Evidence of mitotic crossing over is the occurence of twin spots in Drosophila and other organisms.

Any two of: Mutations Non-disjunctions during anaphase of meiosis Polyploidy Sexual reproduction e.g. crossing-over/recombination during meiosis IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE STUDYISLAND ANSWER IT IS a population whose members have many different traits
what guides the chromosomes movement during mitosis
Mitosis
All chromosomes are reproduced during mitosis.
The main source of genetic variation is a large population with a large gene pool.
