Question

How are meiosis and mitosis different?

A. Only mitosis produces haploid cells from diploid cells.

B. Mitosis has two rounds of nuclear division, but meiosis has only one.

C. Meiosis results in four cells, but mitosis results in two cells.

D. Chromatids form only during the process of meiosis.​

Answer 1

C. Meiosis results in four cells, but mitosis results in two cells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mitosis is a process where a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells (cell division), whereas meiosis is a process where a single cell divides twice to produce four cells containing half the original amount of genetic information.
