Question

what process involving cell division results in daughter cells that are not identical to the parent cell?
asexual reproduction
growth and repair
sexual reproduction
regeneration

Explanation:

• Asexual reproduction: Daughter cells are genetically identical to the parent cell.
• Growth and repair: Mitosis is involved, and daughter cells are identical to the parent cell.
• Sexual reproduction: Involves meiosis. During meiosis, genetic recombination (crossing - over) occurs, and the daughter cells (gametes) have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell and are genetically different.
• Regeneration: Usually involves mitosis (in many organisms), and new cells are similar to the parent cells (in terms of genetic material for the organism's body cells).

Answer:

Sexual reproduction
