could use some help with these questions. Thanks!

1. How do the products of meiosis compare to the original cell? Think about chromosome number.
2. Why are there two sets of phases during meiosis, but only one during mitosis?Think about what is different about meiosis and mitosis.

Respuesta :

Answer:

1. the four cells that result from meiosis have half of the genetic material (chromosomes) of the original parent cell.

2. Cells undergoing mitosis just divide once because they are forming two new genetically identical cells where as in meiosis cells require two sets of divisions because they need to make the cell a haploid cell which only has half of the total number of chromosomes.
