Question
As compared to meiosis, in mitosis(a) Homologous chromosomes form pairs(b) Daughters have half chromosome number(c) Telophase stage is absent(d) Prophase is shorter
Step 1
However, I will provide the correct explanation and step-by-step answer. The question is asking for a comparison between meiosis and mitosis. (a) In meiosis, homologous chromosomes form pairs during prophase I, but this does not occur in mitosis. (b) In Show more…

Which event occurs in meiosis, but not mitosis? A. Homologous chromosomes are divided among daughter cells. B. Daughter cells form with the same genetic information as the parent cells. C. A spindle apparatus forms to move chromosomes across the cell. D. Homologous chromosomes fuse together to reduce the chromosome number by one half.
The stages of meiosis I are virtually the same as the stages of mitosis. The one major difference is a. the homologous chromosomes line up opposite each other during metaphase b. there is no prophase in meiosis I c. the homologous chromosomes line up next to each other during metaphase d. the homologous chromosomes line up at opposite ends of the spindle equator e. there is no anaphase in meiosis I
In meiosis, $a$ a single nucleus gives rise to two daughter nuclei. b. the daughter nuclei are genetically identical to the parent nucleus. c. the centromeres separate at the onset of anaphase I. d. homologous chromosomes synapse in prophase I. $e .$ no spindle forms.
