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.
Are gametes produced by meiosis or mitosis?
In animals, gametes are formed only through meiosis. Mitosis does not produce gametes. However, in autotrophs, spores composed of gametes go though mitosis to produce a gametophyte.
What does meiosis create?
Mieosis is a cell division which produces gametes.
Differences between mitosis and meiosis?
place of occurence ;mitosis= somatic cells | meiosis=gonadic cells crossing over;mitosis=does not occur | meiosis=occur during prophase of meiosis 1 to form tetrads number of daughter cell;mitosis=two | meiosis= four genetic variation;mitosis=no variation produced| meiosis=produces genetic variation genetic composition in daughter cell; mitosis=identical to the parent cell | meiosis= non identical to the parent cell and each other
What does meiosis introduce into the daughter cells that Mitosis does not?
variationvarietyMeiosis introduces genetic variation. Mitosis produces daughter cells that are identical to the parent cell. However, meiosis produces offspring with half the genetic material from each parent - and therefore much more diversity.

What is the number of daughter cells in meosis?
The number of daughter cells created by meiosis is four. These cells, unlike in mitosis which produces only two identical daughter cells, are all different from their parent cell.
What produces 2 identical cells?
A prison construction firm. That, or cellular mitosis.
Does mitosis results in four haploid gametes?
No - mitosis results in two genetically identical diploid cells.Meiosis creates four haploid cells.
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?
mitosis ends with 2 identical daughter cells and meiosis ends with 4 non-identical sister chromatids.
Does the chromosomal number change at all during mitosis?
No. Mitosis produces identical daughter cells - same DNA and same amount. Only in meiosis does the chromosome number halve.
What process produces daughter cells that are genetically identical to there parent cells?
This process is called cell division or mitosis.
