Question

select all of the following that are functions of meiosis. a. shuffle the genetic material b. produce gametes c. produce daughter cells that are genetically identical to the parent cell. d. replace cells that are damaged or injured what is true of daughter cells produced by meiosis? select all that apply. a. they contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell. b. they are genetically identical.

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Meiosis is a type of cell - division that produces gametes. During meiosis, genetic material is shuffled through processes like crossing - over. Daughter cells produced by meiosis have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell and are genetically non - identical. Mitosis is responsible for producing genetically identical daughter cells and replacing damaged or injured cells.

Answer:

For the first question: A. Shuffle the genetic material, B. Produce gametes
For the second question: None of the options are correct. (Since daughter cells of meiosis have half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell and are not genetically identical)
