Answer:D. Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells

Correct answer is D

Below are the choices to choose from for an answer:

A. Meiosis is a multi-step process.

B. Mitosis occurs only in eukaryotic cells.

C. Meiosis is used in the repair of an organism.

D. Mitosis produces genetically identical daughter cells

Explanation:

A. Both meiosis and mitosis are multi -step processes.

B. Mitosis also takes place in prokaryotic cells.

C. Meiosis generates gametes used in sexual reproduction.

D. (correct): Cells produced through mitosis contain DNA identical to the parent cells, whereas those produced in meiosis produces cells that are are unidentical.

Mitosis and meiosis are both processes which describe the production of new cells. Mitosis is responsible for producing 2produces 2genetically identical daughter cells . Meiosis on the other side produces 4 unidentical daughter cells, they are different from each other and the parents and they have half number of chromosomes (haploid)

Secondary succession could occur after a _______.
pychu [463]

Answer:

disturbance has destroyed population in a community

Explanation:

The secondary succession occurs after there has been some disturbance that has manged to badly damage or destroy the populations in a community. This basically means that after some catastrophic event that happened to a certain population or populations, other species moved in to colonize the freed space. There are countless examples of secondary succession in nature, and one of the best is when there is a strong volcanic eruption. The volcano manages to destroy the population of plants and animals in its close surroundings, but after the eruption ends, the space starts to be colonized by new plants and animals step by step until they create a new well functioning community.

What is the outcome when a cell undergoes meiosis?
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

four haploid cells.

Explanation:

meiosis is a reduction division where the contents are equally divided in two cells and so the genetic material becomes half.

during mitosis he genetic material doubles first and then the cell divides

but for meiosis the cell divides first and the genetic material replicates later in the second phase of cell division,because two divisions take place in one cycle the result is four cells.
