chromosomes split and the cell divides
The above mentioned two things happen in mitosis also, so the correct answer would be - 1. Exchange of chromatin material by crossing over and 2. Reduction in the number of chromosomes to half.

Replication occurs during the S phase of the cell cycle before both mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, the replicated DNA is separated into two identical daughter cells. In meiosis, the replicated DNA is separated into four haploid daughter cells with genetic variation.
The offspring could have three X chromosomes or two X chromosomes and a Y chromosome.
The two factors that introduce genetic variation during the process of meiosis are independent assortment and chromosomal crossover. These occur during prophase 1 and anaphase 1 of meiosis.
Before Meiosis 2, the cell must first go through Meiosis 1. This is when the cell splits into two cells, each with two chromosomes.

A total of four daughter cells are created during meiosis. There are two phases of meiosis, meiosis 1 and meiosis 2. During meiosis 1 two daughter cells are created while during meiosis 2 four daughter cells are created.

No, crossovers do not occur during mitosis. Crossovers, also known as genetic recombination, happen during meiosis, specifically during prophase I. Mitosis is the cell division process that results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis is the cell division process that results in four genetically unique daughter cells.
DNA replication does not occur during meiosis. Meiosis is a specialized cell division process that involves two rounds of division to produce gametes with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell. DNA replication happens during the interphase preceding meiosis.
Meiosis does in fact divide twice, once in meiosis I (cytokinesis) and meiosis II (cytokinesis) basically it divides into four daughter cells at the end of meiosis. Two from meiosis I and four in meiosis II
The offspring could have three X chromosomes or two X chromosomes and a Y chromosome.
The two factors that introduce genetic variation during the process of meiosis are independent assortment and chromosomal crossover. These occur during prophase 1 and anaphase 1 of meiosis.

In mitosis, the process results in the formation of two genetically identical daughter cells, maintaining the same chromosome number as the parent cell. Additionally, mitosis involves a single round of cell division, whereas meiosis includes two rounds of division, leading to four genetically diverse daughter cells with half the chromosome number. These differences make mitosis essential for growth and repair, while meiosis is crucial for sexual reproduction.
