Bcoz.. In meiosis ti change ploidy of cell from diploid(n) to haploid(2n) .. 2 division occur.. This helps in formation of haploid gametes.. When two gametes fuse.. They form diploid (2n) zygote.

On the other hand..

There is only one division in mitosis...bcoz no change in ploidy.. Use in growth. Bcoz it retains nucleo-cytoplasmic ratio.

<span>The abundance and variety of fossils in Phanerozoic rocks have allowed geologists to decipher in considerable detail the past 600 million years or so of the Earth’s history. In Precambrian rocks, however, fossils are rare; thus, the geologic record of this important part of the Earth’s history has been especially difficult to decipher.

Why do X-linked traits appear more often in males
Tpy6a [65]
X - linked traits appear more often in males because males only have one x chromosome. One copy of an x - linked trait is all that a male would need to possess that trait. Females have two x chromosomes, so they would require 2 copies of the x - linked trait in order to possess it.
