Does mitosis or meiosis produce daughter cell that are genetically identical?

No, mitosis produces two genetically identical daughter cells (2n from a 2n parent cell), while meiosis produces gametes with half the genetic information of the parent cell (n from a 2n parent). There is also crossing over that occurs during Prophase I of meiosis, which can lead to the formation of new genetic combinations.

∙ 11y agoMitosis is the one that produces identical daughter cells(ex. liver cells dividing) and meiosis is used in reproduction that the ending cells has only half the number of chromosomes needed for a human.

∙ 11y agonope, you get completely different cells which have a random mixture of genes different to one another and to their parents...meitosis is the one which produces cells identical to one another and to their parents (clones)

∙ 14y agoNo, genes are crossed over in the prophase I of meiosis. This makes genetic difference so our kids don't look exactly like us and everyone doesn't have a severe genetic disease.

∙ 13y agono because miosis is to create genetic variability

∙ 12y agoNo they are different because during the process of crossing over the chromosomes get mixed up. :)

What is the purpose off cell division in mitosis and meiosis?
In meiosis, cell division produces four genetically distinct daughter cells. Mitosis produces two genetically identical daughter cells.
Is identical diploid daughter cells mitosis?
mitosis ends with 2 identical daughter cells and meiosis ends with 4 non-identical sister chromatids.
How does the genetic make up of cells that results from mitosis differ from the parent cell?
Mitosis followed by cytokinesis results in two genetically identical, diploid daughter cells. Meiosis followed by cytokinesis results in four genetically non-identical, haploid daughter cells.
What does meiosis create?
Mieosis is a cell division which produces gametes.
When does two daughter cells form?
I'll make this as easy to understand as I can. There are two different ways that daughter cells can form. Mitosis, and Meiosis I. That's all.

Is identical diploid daughter cells mitosis?

Is it true that A cell divides to produce daughter cells that are genetically different?
It is true ONLY for meiosis II. Mitosis and Meiosis I produce identical daughter cells.
What does meiosis create?
Mieosis is a cell division which produces gametes.
How do genetic contents of cells resulting from mitosis different from meiosis?
The four daughter cells resulting from meiosis are haploid and genetically distinct. The daughter cells resulting from mitosis are diploid and identical to the parent cell.
When a cell splits into two genetically identical daughter cells?
cell division: the process of interphase and mitosis makes one cell into two new ones with identical DNA interphase prepares the cell for mitosis mitosis includes prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and cytokinesis
Which process results in two daughter cells each having the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell?
Mitosis results into two genetically identical daughter cells as the parent cell.
When does two daughter cells form?
I'll make this as easy to understand as I can. There are two different ways that daughter cells can form. Mitosis, and Meiosis I. That's all.
What process produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to there parent cells?
This process is called cell division or mitosis.
Is the parent cell diploid a characteristic of meiosis not mitosis?
Mitosis starts with a diploid parent cell and ends with two diploid daughter cells. Meiosis starts with a diploid parent cell and ends with haploid daugther cells. The number of cells produced depends on the type of gamete being generated.
Mitosis is to body cells as meiosis is to?
Germ cells. Somatic cells perform mitosis to get genetically identical daughter cells, and germ cells perform meiosis to get genetically different cells. In gametophytes, it's known as generative cells.
