Name one difference between Meiosis and Mitosis
Answers may vary... • In mitosis, when the 2 sets of genetic material separate, each daughter cell receives one complete set of chromos. In meiosis, homologous chromos line up and then move to separate daughter cells • Mitosis does not normally change the chromosome number of the original cell. This is not the case for meiosis, which reduces the chromosome number by half • Mitosis does not normally change the chromo. Number of the original cell. This is not the case for meiosis, which reduced the chromo number by half
