Question

1. process 1 makes ___ cells and process 2 makes ___ cells. somatic, epithelial cardiac, reproductive reproductive, somatic somatic, reproductive clear all

Explanation:

• Process 1 shows mitosis. Mitosis is the process by which somatic cells divide. Somatic cells include most body cells like epithelial cells (a type of somatic cell). Mitosis results in two daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell and are used for growth, repair, and maintenance of the body.
• Process 2 shows meiosis. Meiosis is the process that forms reproductive cells (gametes). Meiosis has two rounds of division (meiosis I and meiosis II) and results in four daughter cells that are genetically different from the parent cell and have half the number of chromosomes (haploid), which is essential for sexual reproduction.

Answer:

somatic, reproductive
