Question

Match the following differences between Mitosis and Meiosis:

$\begin{array}{cc}\text{Table I}& \text{Table II}\\ \text{i) Mitosis}& \text{a. Two Diploid daughter cells are formed.}\\ \text{ii) Meiosis}& \text{b. Four Haploid daughter cells are formed.}\\ & \text{c. The number of chromosomes remains the same.}\\ & \text{d. Bivalents are formed and crossing over is seen.}\\ & \text{e. Division process occurs twice.}\\ & \text{f. Division process occurs only once.}\end{array}$

• A. i).➡ a.,b., & c. ii).➡ d.,e., & f.
• B. i).➡ d.,e., & f. ii).➡ a.,b., & c.
• C. i).➡ a.,c., & f. ii).➡ b.,d., & e.
• D. i).➡ b.,d., & e. ii).➡ a.,c., & f.

Answer 1

The correct option is C

i).➡ a.,c., & f. ii).➡ b.,d., & e.

i) Mitosis $\to$ c. The number of chromosomes remains the same. $\to$ f. Division process occurs only once. $\to$ a. Two diploid daughter cells are formed.

ii) Meiosis $\to$ d. Bivalents are formed and crossing over is seen. $\to$ e. Division process occurs twice. $\to$ b. Four haploid daughter cells are formed.
