Mitosis and Meiosis?
Both mitosis and meiosis begin with a diploid cell that contains replicated chromosomes. Explain the main differences between these two processes and what types of daughter cells produced by each. (5 points)
(my answer) During meiosis, the chromosomes separate into 4 cells, giving each cell 1 paternal and 1 maternal cell. During mitosis, the diploid cell is replicated genetically. The chromosomes are replicated, then separate to form a different cell. Meiosis goes through 2 rounds of Mitosis to get 4 haploid cells when mitosis happens once and makes 2 diploid cells.
(teacher said) Double check what this question is asking.
What did I do wrong
umm..in meiosis its not 2 rounds of mitosis. meiosis 2 is similar to mitosis but not meiosis1. also u need to mention about the chromosomal no.
