How do the daughter cells compare to the parent cells?
Answer (3)
No, daughter cells refer to cell division. In mitosis, the daughter cells will be identical to the parent cell. However, in meiosis, there will be 4 daughter cells, each genetically unique from one another and the parent cell. This is because of crossing over that occurs in prophase I.
The daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and the parent cell. ;
Daughter cells from mitosis are genetically identical to the parent cell and retain the same number of chromosomes, while daughter cells from meiosis are genetically distinct and have half the number of chromosomes. Mitosis produces two diploid daughter cells, and meiosis produces four haploid daughter cells. This differentiation is essential for understanding cellular processes in biology.
