Question 12 (3 points) Use the diagram below to answer the following questions for 1 point each:

1. Identify ONE similarity between mitosis and meiosis.

2. Identify ONE difference in the results of mitosis and meiosis.

3. Identify ONE difference in the processes of mitosis and meiosis.

Production of DNA.

Somatic cells and sec cells.

Diploid and haploid chromosome.

Explanation:

Similarity between mitosis and meiosis is the production of DNA and both passes through the same phases of cell division. Mitosis cell division occur in somatic or body cell whereas meiosis occur in sex cell of plants and animals. Daughter cells that is produced in mitosis are diploid i. e. double number of chromosome while on the other hand, daughter cells that is produced in meiosis are haploid i. e. half number of chromosome.
