How are mitosis and meiosis different processes? Your answer: A. Mitosis makes exact copies of cells, while meiosis makes cells with half as many chromosomes as they started with. B. Mitosis destroys cells while meiosis makes new cells. C. Mitosis is used to make gamete cells like sperm and egg, but meiosis is used to make new body cells like skin cells

Mitosis produces haploid cells, but meiosis produces diploid cells D. Mitosis requires only one parent cell, but meiosis requires two parent cells
Adi S.
Mitosis is a type of cell division that produces cells that are used for growth and repair. Meiosis is a different type of cell division that produces sex cells used for sexual reproduction. Based on the information provided, which of the following is a difference between mitosis and meiosis? A. Mitosis produces cells that carry half of the genetic material of the parent cell, while meiosis produces cells that are identical to the parent cell. B. Mitosis produces cells that are identical to the parent cell, while meiosis produces cells that carry twice as much genetic material as the parent cell. C. Mitosis produces cells that carry twice as much genetic material as the parent cell, while meiosis produces cells that identical to the parent cell. D. Mitosis produces cells that are identical to the parent cell, while meiosis produces cells that carry half of the genetic material of the parent cell.
