Which of the following describes the difference between meiosis and mitosis? meiosis results in the production of four daughter cells (sperm or egg) with half the number of chromosomes daughter cells identical to the original cell. meiosis is division of the body cells and mitosis is division of the sex cells. meiosis is cell division in females and mitosis is cell division in males. meiosis is a form of ceil division and mitosis a form of protein synthesis. Transfer RNA contains a codon of three bases, with a particular ammo acid attached, that functions in the production of p consists of long strings of amino acids, and is produced by messenger RNA. is a double-stranded molecule with around 30 bases. is a \"double helix\" with phosphate, sugar, and tour bases (adenine, thymine, cytosine, and guanine) In the scientific method, a hypothesis is a statement proven to be untrue. a speculative statement that cannot be tested using observable phenomena. a set of theories that have been repeatedly tested and confirmed. which can fruitfully guide further research. a testable explanation of observed facts.
4. The difference between meiosis and mitosis.
a) Meiosis results in the production of four daughter cells(sperm or egg) with half the number of chromosomes from the original cell and mitosis results in the production of two daughter cells identical to the original cell.
Mitosis takes place in the somatic cells of the body and the meiosis takes place in the sexual reproductive cells or the \'germ cells\' of the body. In mitosis, the cells divide once resuting in two daughter cells having same number of chromosome as parent cell. The genetic constitution of the daughter cell as identical to parent cell. In meiosis there are two cell divisions resuting in four daughter cells having half the number of chromosomes as parent cell (reduced from diploid to haploid). The genetic constituion of the daughter cell is different from parent cell.
