A.
Mitosis is essentially creating more of the same type of cell (more diploid cells). Meiosis occurs in sex cells or gametes and produces cells witht he half the amount of chromosomes (haploid).

Answer:

The correct answer would be an option A.

Mitosis is a type of cell division in which a cell divides into two daughter cells, each containing equal and identical genetic material as that of the parent cell.

For example, if a cell contains 46 chromosomes (2n), then the two daughter cells would also contain 46 (2n) chromosomes after mitosis.

The mitotic division helps in growth and repair of cells.

In contrast, the meiosis is a cell division in which a parent cell divides to produce four daughter cells, each containing half the chromosomes present in a parent cell.

For example, a cell with 46 (2n) chromosomes divide with the help of meiotic division to produce 4 daughter cells, each containing 23 chromosomes.

The meiotic division usually helps in the production of haploid gametes from diploid parent cells.

Difference between incomplete and complete ventilation? any 4​
Temka [501]

Answer:

Due to exchange of gases i.e. normal and abnormal.

Explanation:

The main difference between incomplete and complete ventilation is the occurrence of normal and abnormal exchange of gases. The mechanism in which the exchange of gas happens completely without any difficulty is called complete ventilation. It is the process in which the required amount of oxygen is inhaled or inspired and appropriate amount of carbon dioxide is exhaled out of the body while on the other hand, incomplete ventilation is a mechanism in which exchange of gases is not normal.

Toxicity can be measured by the effect the substance has on an organism, a tissue or a cell. We know that individuals will respond differently to the same dose of a substance because of a number of factors including their gender, age and body weight. Therefore a population-level measure of toxicity is often used
