Answer:

In Meiosis, cells are divided twice to the give haploid cells ( four cells) with half the number of chromosomes in the original cell, while in mitosis, cells only divide once to give identical cell with the same number of chromosomes as its origin.

Explanation:

Meiosis  is a process where a cell divides to give four cells, with the chromosomes half of that of the original cell. This cell division helps produce your genital cells like sperm and female egg. There are nine stages in meiosis.

Mitosis is a process of cell division where a single cell divides just once to produce two identical cells with the same number of chromosomes as the original cell.

Sloan [31]
The correct answer is A. maintaining homeostasis.
Homeostasis is a term referring to an organisms continuous process of maintaining and auto-regulating the conditions of its internal environment. Variables such as pH, temperature, and fluid balance need to be at optimal conditions in order for the organism to function properly.
In this example, the phosphate buffer system permits the organisms to maintain a constant pH in their intracellular fluid. This is one of the organism's homeostatic mechanisms.

Why are insertion and deletion mutations so harmful?
Marta_Voda [28]

the insertion on removal of mutations are dangerous in nature.  the process is basically just one large gamble to see what it does. and even though we have a decent understanding of the genomes of many animals and plants, we still dont know everything. so if we tamper with certain genes we may cause a evolution or we might kill the subject and the potential for it to procreate.
