Activity 4. Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis

Cards (15)

  • Mitosis - Produces body cells.
  • Mitosis - Ensure genetic stability.
  • Mitosis - Divides the parent cell once.
  • Meiosis - Divides the parent cell twice.
  • Meiosis - Produces four daughter cells.
  • Meiosis - Gives way to genetic diversity.
  • Meiosis - Produces gametes or sex cells.
  • Mitosis - Produces daughter cells with same number of chromosomes like the mother cell.
  • Meiosis - Aids in the repair of genetic defects.
  • Meiosis - Associated with sexual reproduction.
  • Mitosis - Associated with asexual reproduction.
  • Mitosis - Produces two identical daughter cells.
  • Meiosis - Occurs in gonads (testes and ovaries).
  • Both - Produces diploid or haploid daughter cells.
  • Mitosis - Helps in repair of damaged cells/tissues.
