Answer:
The correct answer is "Meiosis produces cells that differ genetically from the parent cell".
Explanation:
In contrast with mitosis, which is the cellular differentiation that produces somatic cells; meiosis produces cells that differ genetically from the parent cell. Meiosis is a special type of cellular differentiation that reduces the genetic material by half, and results in the creation of four haploid cells that are genetically distinct from the parent cell. Meiosis allows for the maturation of sexually reproducing cells, and the genetic variations of these cells is one factor that allows for genetic variations among sexually reproducing species, such as humans.

Answer:
B. Sea stars are the prey of seagulls
Explanation:
Seagulls eat sea stars, meaning that sea stars are their prey (the organism that is eaten).
Predator: an organism that eats (preys on) another organism
Prey: an organism that is eaten by another organism (creatures can be both predator and prey. For example, a rabbit is a predator to grass, while they are prey to foxes)
Host: An organism that is fed on by a parasite. Think of a dog with a tick. The dog is the host, the tick is the parasite.
Incorrect answers (and why):
A. Sea stars do not eat seagulls
C. If a sea star was a predator to a seagull, that would mean that they eat seagulls. They do not.
D. A host is an organism that a parasite preys on. Not only are sea stars not parasites, but they definitely do not prey on seagulls.
I hope this helps! :)
