name daniel te110 bell 5 mitosis vs. meiosis practice for each box below sketch the end result of mitosis and meiosis if starting with the given chromosome number. see example below.
Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus. So for mitosis, the chromosome number remains the same as the starting number. Meiosis is a type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell. So for meiosis, the chromosome number is half of the starting number.
For example, if starting with 8 chromosomes in mitosis, the result is 8 chromosomes (because mitosis maintains chromosome number). In meiosis, starting with 8 chromosomes, the result is 4 chromosomes (since meiosis halves the chromosome number). Similarly, for 14 in mitosis: 14; meiosis: 7. For 18 in mitosis: 18; meiosis: 9. For 20 in mitosis: 20; meiosis: 10. For 26 in mitosis: 26; meiosis: 13. For 46 in mitosis: 46; meiosis: 23. For 78 in mitosis: 78; meiosis: 39.
